The following measures should be taken immediately after a person has been bitten. Most zombie infections are transmittable diseases—which means, theoretically, that they could be caused by bacteria. But how many times have you seen someone in a movie try to disinfect a zombie bite?
If someone is bitten, clean the wound thoroughly and disinfect with an antibiotic cream, rubbing alcohol, or a mixture of vinegar, salt, and water if no antibiotics are available. A person who has been bitten by a zombie is most likely bleeding.
Stop the blood flow by applying pressure with a clean cloth or bandage. Elevate the limb above the heart. The infection that passes the zombifying disease is almost always fatal. However, if you catch it quickly enough, there is a possibility that you could halt or slow it down. Avoid trying to suck the poison out—this will invariably put you at risk for zombification as well.
Instead, wrap a cloth or bandage tightly around the bitten limb, between the bite and the heart. In the absence of a qualified surgeon, a field tourniquet may be the only option. These can be easily constructed by wrapping a cloth around the wounded limb between the wound and the heart, inserting a stick or baton into the cloth, and then twisting it until blood constricts. It only takes a few twists to constrict blood flow enough to kill the limb—and this measure should not be taken except in the most dire of circumstances, and never by non-medical professionals unless a zombification is imminent.

What is the best way to survive a zombie bite? Is it death? What I found suggests that most viewers are likely mistaken about how zombification in The Walking Dead works.
It turns out that becoming a zombie is fairly straightforward. According to a quote from the creator of the original comic series, Robert Kirkman:. If someone shoots you in the head and you die, you're dead. A zombie bite kills you because of infection, or blood loss, not because of the zombie "virus.
But if it is merely death that turns you, why do all of the characters regard a zombie bite as a death sentence? Why is it one of the first questions they ask strangers, and why did Herschel need to lose a leg? Dead bodies can be dangerous in and of themselves, so humans have always taken precaution with them. In fact, in a case where we have to handle corpses, such as after a natural disaster, there are a number of steps responders have to take to avoid infection and disease.
For example, a rotting body can still transfer gastrointestinal pathogens, tuberculosis, and hepatitis [PDF] to the living. Beyond the disorders and detritus that come along with death, perhaps the walkers in TWD employ the same deadly cocktail of disease that Komodo Dragons do.
The largest lizards in the world, Komodo Dragons are fierce predators. Stack Overflow for Teams — Collaborate and share knowledge with a private group. Create a free Team What is Teams?
