WE TURN INTO ZOMBIES
Mad Cow Disease attacks a cow’s spinal cord and basically turns it into a staggering milk bag. And if humans eat those angry cows their brain tissue might develop holes and take on a sponge-like texture. The fatal brain condition is called Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease. Some worry the disease’s composition will change and become transmittable by casual or sexual contact, and instead of dying we’ll turn into zombies with horrible posture and hygiene.
Sounds dumb, right? Well last year the Center for Disease Control and Prevention published a zombie survival guide (seriously). While most of it was preemptive strategy for any emergency situation and a propaganda tool for how disaster-ready the CDC is, it unfortunately encouraged all the people who won’t shut the hell up about zombies.
