---SOLONUM---
This is the more detailed explanation of the zombie biology. You know what makes them tick, so that you can tick tick boom.
First! What is it that infects people? Well the answer is solonum. This is a virus that infects only human beings and no other form of life. In fact when animals sense solonum in the area they will immediately flee. But in the case that a zombie was to bite a caged dog or something they wont get infected but will instead immediately die. Now if the virus was to enter your bloodstream you will eventually expire and turn into one of the walking dead. While the virus is in your bloodstream it will make its way to the brain. Once there the virus will begin its reanimation process. So i give you the partially detailed symptoms of infection.
----SYMPTOMS IMMEDIATELY AFTER INFECTION----
HOUR 1: Pain and Discolor of infected materials, Immediate clotting of wound (if infection came from a wound)
HOUR 5: Fever ranging from 99 to 103 degrees F,chills, slight dementia, vomiting, and minor joint pain
HOUR 8: Numbing of extremities and infected area, increased fever ranging from 103 to 106 degrees F, increased dementia, and loss of muscular coordination.
HOUR 11: Paralysis in lower body, overall numbness, slowed heart rate
HOUR 16: Coma
HOUR 20: Heart stoppage Zero brain activity
HOUR 23: Reanimation DUN DUN DUN

---UNDEAD ATTRIBUTES---
Now there has been speculation that zombies can climb walls, teleport, and even maybe shape shift! Well luckily this is false. The only way for zombies to get these attributes would be to infect a person that could do this in the first place like Chris Angel. But i don't think he would get infected due to the fact that he would just disappear to like Canada or something. So now i shall discus the 5 senses of the zombies.
1) EYESIGHT
Now zombies eyesight are actually on par with that of a human. Interesting enough the brain can still transmit signals to the brain. Which probably means that some nerve endings in the brain could still work. Well despite this it is still inconclusive whether or not zombies can tell the difference between other zombies and humans. Theory is that humans don't have a limp to their walk so zombies can pick out the differences. Knowing that this is a theory you shouldn't try this at ALL.
2) HEARING
Contradicting to sight, Zombies have excellent hearing. Although its range is the same as humans zombies can determine where noise would come from and can be attracted by this sound. Any noise made either from prey or just random noise will attract the zombie. Its not that zombies have super hearing, its just that zombies rely on this sense more. We humans rely on our sight more which makes our other senses less effective and will only use them if our primary sense has no use.
3) TOUCH
This is the biggest advantage against the living. Zombies as we know are dead making their sensory nerves dead too. This means that zombies cannot feel and register pain. This also means that NOTHING can deter a zombie from its prey. If you was to point a gun at a zombie it wont stop, it wont run, it will simply continue to slowly make its way to you. With this major advantage the only way to kill the zombie and i mean only way would be to eliminate the brain were the solonum virus controls the body.
4) TASTE
It is inconclusive if zombies have taste but it is known that zombies will prefer human meat over animals and also prefers live meat over dead meat (heehee dead meat). They can also tell the difference between humans and animals and will always prefer the former.
5) SMELL
This is one of the undeads' greatest assets due to the fact that their hearing far surpasses ours. With the right mountan ranges and wind direction the undead can smell prey from over a mile away! Luckily for you it would take them a really long time to get to you.
wow that took me a couple of weeks to write. Danm. Well Dr.Truth has no longer his ranting blog so that is a disapointment. So next I will make the way to KILL a zombie.
