FEAR

As early as 8 AM no TWD on AMC Channel, instead the rerun of FEAR the Walking Dead is in. If you are familiar with the television series FEAR TWD story which featured a dysfunctional family where a single mom Madison has to care and support two kids in High School. The mother works at the High School department and have to deal with students with disabilities and other problems concerning theft. Theft: Non-perishable food in the form of canned goods, medicines, etc are being stolen. The problems are greater as the story went further to the event of the onset of the apocalyptic war where soldiers have to do the inevitable quarantine of the affected population. As you have probably known that pile of zombie bodies were then annihilated burnt to ashes as a matter of ethnic cleansing sort of (Happened during the Holocaust of preventing infection to the rest of the population, Hitler style). In this story, it's hard to determine whether Nick was a victim of overdose of methadone or "meth." or other illegal drugs sold by Nick's friend. It turned out that methadone is a prescription drug for pain and proven as powerful pain reliever but so many side effects and should not be taken anyway. At first you would probably blame that it could be Nick's blurry vision or the adverse reaction of the drug that made Nick seeing disgusting face of zombies but later on almost everyone can see the shocking zombies are not just product of the side effects of drugs consumed by patients. To think that Nick was a spoiled rotten brat who can get what he wants including illicit  drugs and his mom Madison had to kill for him just to keep him alive. But Nick needs more than pain killer after he had an accident when he was run over (struck) by a speeding vehicle when he was running away from zombies at the church. Then the rest of the story is the day to day survival of being away from zombies as Nick decided to walk on the long road to Tijuana.

What could be? Having anxiety? Don't be so angst about this story. It's just a TV Series. It's a myth. Zombies could be a product of an epidemic gone wild during the bubonic plague medieval era. A time when nobody knows the cure for simple flu or influenza. Nobody knows the cure for TB or cholera because ANTIBIOTIC was discovered only after World War II. Polio vaccines and Flu, diptheria vaccines were only discovered after World War II. With all the plagues since the beginning of time, how could it be possible that the population of the Earth has reached BILLIONS of people in the year 2000? Hard to believe right?
