Zombie

A first-person perspective video depicting the imagined start of a COVID-19 zombie infection outbreak has attracted a large audience, with hundreds of thousands of people engaging with it. The content blends the real pandemic with zombie-fiction tropes, presenting the scenario as if seen through the eyes of someone on the ground. It is a work of fiction, not a report of any actual event, and there is no evidence of a real zombie outbreak.

Attention is turning to World War Z 2, with a premise described as a deadly zombie virus sweeping the globe while an agent flees with his infected daughter. The story continues the 2013 film starring Brad Pitt, based on Max Brooks's novel, and fans of the franchise are sharing and reacting to the sequel concept widely across the web.
