There needs to be a fast spreading disease that does the following:
Forces your body to keep moving Forces your mind to go blank and loose logic Skin disease Does damage to your flesh but not your gums for your teeth Can still see Can still be aware, but can't think Affects human Happens rapidly
That's not going to happen. |

| yeah, all I know there is no such neural disease that can do all that. In order to become a "zombie", you would have to be controlled by one superior organism. Tiny microscopic organisms can't take your entire body. |

I mean by keep your body going as in even if you have a HUGE loss of blood you still have to have to be able to move around and attack prey. |

| Neurotoxins I think would kill you, not turn you into a 'zombie'. Or pacify you, or.. I don't know, I don't know lots. |

How would brain parasites combine with a 'rage' virus?
How would a disease contribute to 'nanobots'?
Which article off wikipedia did you get this from? |

| The virus would have to be scaled up a lot, it wouldn't affect a human, OR, it is too strong and will kill a human. |

This is the exact article on the Haiti incident, if you don't want to be bothered by looking for it: (I had to take some profanities out.)
"How it can result in zombies: "Can?" How about "does." This stuff has happened in Haiti; that's where the word "zombie" comes from. There are books about it, the most famous ones by Dr. Wade Davis (Passage of Darkness and The Serpent and the Rainbow). Yes, the movie The Serpent and the Rainbow was based on this guy's actual science stuff. How much of it was fact?
"What is definitely true is the story of Clairvius Narcisse. He was a Haitian guy who was declared dead by two doctors and buried in 1962. They found him wandering around the village 18 years later. It turned out the local voodoo priests had been using naturally occurring chemicals to basically zombify people and putting them to work on the sugar plantations"

First, I never said any of those things had to "combine", and second, the article isn't on wikipedia, it's on cracked.com. I'm pretty sure I included the article name at the top. |
