Overview

Zombie syndrome is a disease that affected Human beings in the 21st century. It was caused by the SuperBug, whose origins are still disputed, with several indications that it may have been developed by an alien species. The syndrome had a varied presentation, the common features included inattentiveness, decreased mental capacity, drooling, laziness with sudden bursts of activity, uncontrollable diarrhea, constant tweeting and an increased appetite for gluten-free products. Despite several treatment options being developed, the disease was only eradicated in the year 2069 after Emperor Joffrey gathered all affected patients in cages and then put them on rockets headed directly to the sun with the assistance of trillionaire, and first human fusion individual, Jelon Mezos, in what was known as project "Best Summer Tan".


Historical Perspective

  • Zombie syndrome was first described in 2041 by American innovator and InstaTwitter personality Kute_Lash_Curls854873 who documented several cases during her coverage of the 14th Burning Fyre Man Fest which took place in northeastern Venezuela. Several outbreaks were reported in the following weeks across the globe.
  • In 2044, the North Korean CDC announced that it had isolated the causative pathogen, an unusual spherical bacterium with a completely opaque surface and it was named SuperBug.

Pathophysiology

Pathogenesis

  • The pathogen, SuperBug, enters the host by using a laser beam to open the skin after anesthetizing the area with a Tranq-Dart.
  • Afterwards, the SuperBug starts its migration to the brain by one of two ways:
  1. Swimming in the blood stream and going through the blood brain barrier using the laser beam but on a different setting.
  2. Teleportation, with the destination usually being one of the lateral ventricles, with more predilection for the left over the right.
  • The SuperBug then tries to establish a connection to a neuronal body or axon to start its influence, the psychic abilities of the SuperBug seem to only work on nearby neurons and a preference for the corpus callosum has been noticed, possibly because of access to both brain hemispheres.


Epidemiology and Demograghics

Zombie syndrome was a very contagious condition. Though the exact mechanism of inter-personal transmission was not fully-understood, it was believed that a healthy individual spending as little as 5 seconds in the same room with an affected individual was enough for the SuperBug to infect the new individual, giving rise to the 5-second rule. The disease seemed to affect all groups of the human population with no regard to age, race, sexual orientation, gender identity, city of birth or eye brow thickness.
