Centers for Disease Control issues suggestions for zombie attackSubmitted by OliverJ on Wed, 05/25/2011 - 04:28 |
The Centers for Disease Control is tasked with a large job. The agency is responsible for informing citizens of public health dangers. On May 16, the Centers for Disease Control did something almost entirely unprecedented. The agency offered recommendations for preparing for a zombie apocalypse. While the post is meant to be tongue-in-cheek, the recommendations are useful devastation preparedness information.
CDC recommend preparedness measures
In the case of a zombie apocalypse, the Centers for disease control recommend keeping some basic preparedness supplies around. At the very least, the supplies should hold you over for a while. Eventually you will "find a zombie-free refugee camp" though. Keeping one gallon of water per person, per day is recommended. Make sure you have basic emergency preparedness items around such as non-perishable food items, documents, first aid, clothing and tools. The CDC's job during this event was also outlined to be to offer assistance and investigate.
Reason for Centers for Disease Control guidelines
It was a few months ago when the Centers for Disease Control director decided zombie apocalypse recommendations should be put out. In a web chat about the nuclear power problems in Japan, a participant asked whether that nuclear leak would create a zombie apocalypse in Japan. Dr. Ali S. Khan, the head of the CDC's Office of Public Health Preparedness and Response, took this as a reminder for how popular the myth of the zombie apocalypse had become. A fan of "Resident Evil," Dr. Khan has often asked for creative ideas on how to get the public involved with the CDC's mission of informing the public about disaster preparedness.
Using common beliefs to spread a significant message
Whether you are thinking about zombies or 2012 disaster, people are very worried. It has become a popular thing to be concerned about. The CDC's OPHPR has started putting out "official recommendations" since Dr. Khan took over in case a meteor strikes or there's a zombie strike. These things probably will not happen. It is more likely that there will be a flu outbreak or a tornado. Either way, however, the preparedness steps are essentially the same. The CDC's preparedness office has been able to help individuals prepare for devastation situations because of this pop culture, live web chats, public interaction and social media.
