China will be (if it has not already) be the first, or main site of the 'Zombie War'. With its massive populace living in 'tight quarters' and usually sub-par living conditions, not to mention little interest in its lower class citizens, an outbreak could easily start, and spread, in China.
It is claimed by many 'experts' on the subject that these outbreaks, in the 'class 1' category, will be covered up with stories of 'bird flu', 'mad cow', 'small pox' and other very uncommon diseases (as well as murder/suicide in large numbers). These 'experts' also claim that the incidents (of the class one variety) will likely spring up among children or the very old, and will most likely start as isolated cases where it is highly unlikely that the above said diseases can spring up in the area.
Cover ups and media spin, according to these 'experts', will exist during the case of a class one and two outbreak, with the truth being withheld until a F.U.B.A.R situation of a class three outbreak is already in the process. It is recommended by these 'experts' that cases like this baby and her 'bird flu' be tracked closely, as well as specific questions asked.
1. Is she the only case in a 100mile radius?
2. Have there been any unsolved murder cases where the victim has been killed with a singe head shot?
3. In the following weeks after this case, have there been any similar cases of the 'flu' spreading where there has been no contact with the initial patient?
4. Has there been a press blackout for the immediate area?
If you can answer two or more of these questions with a 'yes' - it is advised , by the 'experts', that you keep close watch on the topic, and, be ready to protect your self.
