Be sure to focus your paper on how to specifically prevent a zombie pandemic.

Wasn't a huge fan of the movie.
Actually haven't been a fan of many of Smith's recent movies.
By any chance, is there any book comparison in the class?

And how would you go about preventing the spread of zombies?

I am in no way, shape or form eligible to decide how to prevent zombies.
One would have to assume you'd have to identify what is causing the spread though - be it exposure, chemical reaction, genetics, or a bite/scratch of some kind.

Then you would have to determine the average speed the zombies travel at, and the cognitive skills they posses as well as dexterity levels. Are they capable of speech, reason, thought, any general forms of rationalization?

Then you would have to determine the best way to get rid of the infestation, whether it be to exterminate all living zombies, or to come up with some sort of anti-virus to prevent further spread, as well as exterminating all zombies. You would have to find if the strain is passable onto animals as well - and if so - what animals/insects are able to be infected, and what happens when such happens.

Do these zombies sleep, do they avoid daylight? Can they swim? Do they climb? All of these are reasonable and valid questions you would need to solve before you even figure out where to begin on a zombie prevention plan.

I think this is a fine start to a Zombie Prevention and Survival Guide.
Just need to expand your ideas. And maybe do some research on known zombies *coughCamcough*

well we had to write the paper on how each of us would have went about preventing the spread of infection, using techniques that we learned, like PPE's, Personal Protection Equipment (i think? i don't pay much attention, too boring of a class) and things along those lines.

and, it was the second time that i had saw the movie, but i thoroughly enjoyed it, even the second time around. i actually paid close attention to what exactly was going on in the movie, and i loved the different twists and turns in it, it made it stand out.
