The Plague

The Zombie Plague, or also known as the Chinese Rabies, Walking Infection or The Virus is a reanimation infection upon dead beings. It is responsible for killing over 60% of the world population and causing the human population to be on the brink of extinction.

Although it is unknown where the plague originated, there have been confirmed sources of it originating from a small village in the center of China. Chinese authorities officially believed it to be from an illegal animal market, but others believed it to of been a mutation from another virus, hence the nickname "Chinese Rabies".

Up until February 2021, the disease was kept "silent" by the Chinese authorities and only was it when the # of infected rose above 50,000 did they contact WHO and the UN. The first documented death was in November 2020 by loss of blood, but the first death due to the disease was in January 2021. In a matter of months, the UN concluded that the virus was quickly evolving to the point of people dying in 2 months to dying in a week. Later reports in Japan reported people dying in 6-24 hours.

In early March 2021, the UN set up a list of symptoms to the public but excluded the death part to prevent a Global Panic. This was seen as a mistake a few months later, as the infections rocketed due to the public not knowing the infection was deadly. It was clarified by WHO in April 2021 that the virus could spread by blood, bites and scratches. However, it was also clarified that the infection can not be spread by other flying insects including mosquitoes. 'Water droplet' infection and the spread through the nose and eyes were disincluded with no explanation.

In 2025, it was reported that children born from survivors had gained an unnatural immunity to the virus, similar to the Spanish Flu and Bubonic Plague. Therefore, it was pressured for survivors to reproduce to further the result of a cure for adults.
