My dad suddenly developed an aggressive throat cancer. Started as a very small bump on the side of his neck, but he hated going to the doctor and it wasn’t until it started growing and causing pain that he finally went and they realized it was cancer. From the time the first symptoms showed to the day he passed was under 8 months as best as we can tell. However, looking back at pictures from that time period, his German Shepherd started getting very interested in that particular spot of his neck. He would smell and lick at that spot, which a short time later turned out to be exactly where the cancer was. His dog isn’t trained to detect any specific scents, he just happened to notice that there was a new smell in that spot that he didn’t recognize. Had we been able to recognize that sign, my dad might still be here. But, at the time it just seemed like he was showing affection and happened to like smelling and licking at that spot. It kind of blew our minds once we actually realized that he caught it long before we ever did, but dogs can be pretty amazing like that.
My mother had a very aggressive form of small cell cancer. She thought she had the flu. After about a week, when the symptoms weren't getting any better, she went to the hospital, where they discovered she had cancer. She died 3 days later.
@@PalmelaHanderson Wow, that’s awful. I consider 8 months to be pretty fast moving and aggressive but 10 days is something else entirely. I’m sorry for your loss and I wish you and family the best.

To be honest I've always thought 28 days later's non-existent incubation period made it less scary. Like, it would be super easy to identify dudes with rage virus and stop them. Imagine if they invisibly spread it like Covid, and after a week or so suddenly became psychotic.
Not really non- existant incubation is the scary part, what are you going to do if your in a stadium and 1 infected runs in 20 mins later you got 64000+ infected
@@TheSILENTBOB180 Yes but it is impossible for a Virus like that to effectively spread to more than a few places. An infected like that can only really travel by foot which is extremely ineffective. It can't travel by plane or train or car.
@@oskarmartin6486 Yup. An outbreak would be catastrophic for the local population, but could be contained using conventional bombs and the military. Also, further outbreaks would be easier to contain as people would know what they are dealing with.

@@oskarmartin6486 train to Busan though 😅 all that has to happen is for one to slip in before the train starts moving. Also 28 weeks later gives us the possibility of carriers so I wouldn't underestimate how far such a virus could spread.
@@mrsmopsi9333 Trains usually don't move by themselves. The initial outbreak is not the problem for an "instant virus" the problem comes when everybody and their mothers know about that virus so trains won't be running and planes won't fly in a matter of hours. So while such a virus would work well if the initial outbreak was in a populated area, once it has to cross large distances it inevitably fails. If the virus has an incubation period it could be halfway around the world before anybbody notices
Running "zombies" are actually the most possible (the 28 Days Later kind) since it's just intensified rabies with extremely shorter incubation periods.
@@ulfjohnsen6203 pretty sure that’s not how it works. You’re thinking of World War Z, but that’s not possible, since a virus is tailored to a specific species of animal or something. Like the bacteriopage, which was mentioned here, can only target one specific bacteria/a small family of bacteria, but not humans, since they are tailored to attack one species. Of course there are diseases that can cross between other animals and humans, but they can infect only some types of mammals, but not bacteria, since bacteria and mammals are very different things. Also even if a virus could do that, the virus can’t prevent cells dying, and a whole lot of other problems. What you’re talking about just isn’t how things work
Thank you! I've always said that when talking to people about zombies. Especially with seasonal changes the bodies would continue to decompose with no blood flow. So after a year or two they would be piles of mush with snapping jaws
These shows always explain that whatever mechanism reanimated them also slows or halts decomposition, and sometimes decomposition doesn't necessarily even stop them until the brain completely decays. Resident Evil showed the T-Virus reanimating skeletons so that virus has a form of cellular regeneration in addition to reanimation. And of course in the case where it's demons the mechanism doesn't matter because it's demon magic.
yeah i kind of assumed when i clicked on this that nothing would be a 10 cuz there's nothing we can compare it to. "oh this was nothing like the zombie outbreak of 1650" or whatev

Imagine if we had a zombie movie or video game like the last of us where a fungus took years to kill off the host, meaning they would have white fungal patches on their skin, the sweat glands would be spore launchers, the host would grow blooming protrusions and hard fungal lumps from a mix of fungus and the body's ability to produce bone, creating a bone-fungus hybrid as an armour of sorts. The body would soften at some places, harden like stone at others, and morph the host into an abomination. Like a piece of bread going mouldy they would literally just deteriorate into a rotten corpse but be alive while it happens it would cause immense pains, cramps and burning feelings at points as the victims disintegrate and at this point are completely sane despite already looking like a zombie. Due to eventually "blooming" and launching spores infecting others for a few days a month they would be exiled from their communities at a certain stage and left to fend for their own or go insane/be eaten by other fully assimilated victims. The immense pain and the slow deletion of the conscious part of the brain (similar to dementia but subconscious responses like breathing would be left perfectly intact) would create a frantic zombie eventually (think of hollows from dark souls, who are simply people who lost all of their memories but act like zombies) and it would be very tragic and realistic while also explaining some zombie video game tropes. The chances of them having the strength to fight you at all would be low in real life however, so maybe this would instead replace human cells with dense fungal cells rather than eating them. For example zombies could have tough armour and enlarged muscles and height (which could actually be entirely logical, as maybe in some rare cases the pituitary gland in men could become corrupted and deformed causing it to be over-stimulated and lead to over-production of testosterone and causing puberty multiple times, growing muscle, height and increased aggression, with the rapid growth likely deforming the host, making them like a tank from left 4 dead.). No idea at all what a female equivalent would look like, maybe like a spider they would give birth to dozens of children at once, dying the process, because I'm not sure what useful effect oestrogen would have in being a zombie other than having periods all the time. Maybe they spit acid blood? Or weave webs like a spider?
I agree with the McDoucheface guy. Honestly, I say get to work on writing this. You may or may not be good at like, writing plotlines and stuff, but that idea itself is really good, so you can workshop it. If you do it well enough or get somebody on board who likes the idea, you might even be able to do something with it and make money off of it.
I mean, The Last of Us kind of explores the variation of fungal infection stages on the so called “zombies.” Given that the pathogen in game is a mutation of the Cordyceps disease.
I guess it depends on how the virus spreads. Like if the incubation period is simply the virus/bacteria multiplying in your bloodstream and no other effects occur (like mucus droplets being exhaled when you breathe or spread through other bodily fluids) then all you would need to worry about is the actual infectious/symptomatic period. But if the incubation does cause droplets to be exhaled or can be spread through bodily fluids like that, then the scale of infection would be much larger.
The inroll ads are starting to get so intrusive that I'm finally moving away to other services. It's *much* worse than network and cable TV now. Not sure what they are thinking but the golden goose comes to mind.
Sadly we do have an exemple of someone alive in a dead body, so we got a pretty good idea of what a somehow animated dead body would be capable of, at the very most you could squeeze an hour or so of proper activity out of the body just after its death, and then it would slowly stop moving. After a day or so, with no medical help, the subject won't be able to move at all. So if a Zombie apocalypse happens, stay home for a couple days, the problem will most likely be resolved when you come back out.
I really liked that book “Fever 1793”. Good book. I got really into it and I don’t like reading book as a pass time but this book was on point. I recommend it.
Rabies is very treatable if you are not an idiot. You should always go to the doctors and get tested for rabies of you are bit by a normally non aggressive animal well really animal actually and Incan take months for you to get symptoms and when you get symptoms is when you have a 100% chance of dying the problem is that if you get the treatment for it you have to get a ton of needles
Fun facts: first ever zombie movie made was in Germany called, THE CABINET OF DR CALIARGI in 1920. There's approximately over 270 zombie movies made. THE WALKING DEAD was first a movie, directed by Michael Curtiz who directed CASABLANCA. First zombie film in color was in 1961, DOCTOR'S BLOOD COFFIN. First nazi zombie movie was THE FROZEN DEAD. First zombie sequel was DAWN OF THE DEAD. First zombie movie made in New Zealand was BRAINDEAD, directed by Peter Jackson. RESIDENT EVIL was the fist zombie movie made based on a video game. China has banned all zombie movies. RESIDENT EVIL was the first zombie movie where animals could be infected as well, probably because they had a bigger budget for SFX and CGI. There are real animals that can mimic zombielike behaviors; various insects, frogs, and crabs. Technically anyone who rises up from the dead is a zombie. In christian and jewish mythologies there are several humans who rose from the dead.
I did a paper on the crazies in college, my theory was containment was lost in the plane somehow, the crew panicked and ditched, the virus got crop dusted over the town and the water supply and where the plane ended up didn't matter because the virus had already been distributed. All and all a good movie and good depiction of realistic infection.
I think she meant growth mediums or bodily fluids that might have contagious microbes don't just magically aerosolize. Pretty on point about the HVAC system in that lab though. Hilarious they're in Level 4 Biohazard suits, but they just have unfiltered regular ventilation going to the entire building.
resident evil got many virus + plagas but because other virus change them into monsters instead of zombies they only counted the one that makes them zombies, i think they also should rated the range of infection if it can infect all living things it should be rated higher
The book is typical zombie fantasy bunk and the Battle of Yonkers is a travesty written by someone who had less understanding of modern weapons than a 12 year old who plays Call of Duty.
I remember reading somewhere of a case where someone was infected with rabies and only sought treatment post-incubation period. Apparently they were subjected to an induced coma for several weeks which slowed down the progression of the infection, during which time medication and other treatment was administered and resulted in a successful recovery.
Been saying that for years. Met the man at comic con and told there’d be a movie. Fast forward I watch said movie, disappointed to how bad it was handled.

The wwz book truly is great. I was so excited when I heard they were making a movie. I thought they were going to adhere to the book and do a semi-documentary style movie. Then I got very disappointed when I saw the trailer and have refused to see it since lol yes, I'm that asshurt. Very good book.
Dude, the book was a fictional survivor guide, literally just a bunch of really short stories. Honestly, the moment I heard about the movie adaptation, I knew it wouldn't be like the book. Reasonably speaking, it can only be done justice if it was made into a TV show that has a format akin to "Kino's Journey -The Beautiful World-".
@@FinalStigma I don't remember WWZ having a survival guide in it, that was Max's other book, The Zombie Survival guide. (which also had very short stories throughout history at the end) WWZ was about UN agent going around and collecting stories from people as apart of some postwar commission they were doing. The stories were more emotional, better written and more fleshed out than the anecdote sort of stories in the Survival Guide. But yes, a TV show would have been a better format.
For that one guy complaining their mics suck. They are on a zoom call. What the suppose they do? Bring expensive mics for every guy they interview that they already paid?
Should have shown I am legend, I had a depiction in which a disease alters behaviour however maintains basic human characteristics of self preservation and instinct, essentially living zombie like creatures, meaning they aren't "walking dead" so it would make sense for them to live years, and it would also make sense for treatment to be possible. Its the kind of movie that I'd be more interested in hearing her opinion about
I'm more interested in i wonder if military or police quarantine zones can use lethal force on people trying to escape, especially in some militaries that uses kill teams on certain outbreaks
Liked the fungus idea. Might have to search that film out. If you do another Insider there's a comedy take on viral infections in Red Dwarf, a British comedy that might be a fun change from the Zombies.
So, there was a "zombie"/"virus" movie awhile back....and the intro was 'frozen motion' cameras scenes, where the world was in freeze-frame, but the camera would slowly pull back and reveal more and more in each scene change of the intro. One part of that intro showed a man in a high-rise office, looking at a picture of his family, he was crying, and as the camera pulled back, infected people were breaking through his office door/window and he had just pulled the trigger on a revolver pointed at his temple. CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT TF movie that was??? I've looked for YEARS!!!
Considering the current global viral plague and poor education standards, the paucity of comments here compared to cheesy action movies and fantasy weapons is rather telling. Finally, the original The Crazies not crap remakes like every other disappointing expert clip show on yt. Please do more classic films from the 1930s to 1980s instead of the asinine contemporary remake movies.
I'm disappointed that they don't call real zombies to break down the scenes.

I mean, The Last of Us kind of explores the variation of fungal infection stages on the so called “zombies.” Given that the pathogen in game is a mutation of the Cordyceps disease.
Dude, can I borrow this for a novella?
I always thought a longer incubation period would aid in the spread of a virus, as people would travel and spread the disease before symptoms emerged.
I guess it depends on how the virus spreads. Like if the incubation period is simply the virus/bacteria multiplying in your bloodstream and no other effects occur (like mucus droplets being exhaled when you breathe or spread through other bodily fluids) then all you would need to worry about is the actual infectious/symptomatic period. But if the incubation does cause droplets to be exhaled or can be spread through bodily fluids like that, then the scale of infection would be much larger.
You rated zombieland...... I love it!
The inroll ads are starting to get so intrusive that I'm finally moving away to other services.
It's *much* worse than network and cable TV now. Not sure what they are thinking but the golden goose comes to mind.
I was so happy to see Z Nation in this. Was sad to hear when they cancelled the show
glad to see a professional who loves the show, she really nailed it "underrated"
To me, the best ever zombie movie of all, was 'The Return of the Living Dead (1985)'. The movie was really scary when I watched it for the first time.
Hilarious punk rock cult classic- love it! 🧟♂️ “Send more cops” 👍🏻
I love that she said she loved the World War Z book better and said Z Nation is underrated bc i think the exact same things lmfao
Sadly we do have an exemple of someone alive in a dead body, so we got a pretty good idea of what a somehow animated dead body would be capable of, at the very most you could squeeze an hour or so of proper activity out of the body just after its death, and then it would slowly stop moving. After a day or so, with no medical help, the subject won't be able to move at all.
So if a Zombie apocalypse happens, stay home for a couple days, the problem will most likely be resolved when you come back out.
I feel like Virus related movies will stop being made after 2020
Why??🙁🙁🙁
I highly doubt it
Because its coming to real life
I really liked that book “Fever 1793”. Good book. I got really into it and I don’t like reading book as a pass time but this book was on point. I recommend it.
Who's gonna tell her that, everyone does infact die and come back in the walking dead, everyone.
I had her for like two courses when I was in undergrad 🤣🤣🤣
Loved her classes
well i didn't know rabbies was that fatal.
adding it to my list of things that scare the crap out of me...
Rabies is very treatable if you are not an idiot. You should always go to the doctors and get tested for rabies of you are bit by a normally non aggressive animal well really animal actually and Incan take months for you to get symptoms and when you get symptoms is when you have a 100% chance of dying the problem is that if you get the treatment for it you have to get a ton of needles
Just make sure to get checked out if an animal bites you.
Ooooh ha. Ha. Ha ha. Haaa. Yo. U have NO IDEA WHAT YOU ARE. but I'm doesn't
"28 Days Later" (2002) & "The Girl with All the Gifts" (2016)-most real
Fun facts: first ever zombie movie made was in Germany called, THE CABINET OF DR CALIARGI in 1920. There's approximately over 270 zombie movies made.
THE WALKING DEAD was first a movie, directed by Michael Curtiz who directed CASABLANCA.
First zombie film in color was in 1961, DOCTOR'S BLOOD COFFIN.
First nazi zombie movie was THE FROZEN DEAD.
First zombie sequel was DAWN OF THE DEAD.
First zombie movie made in New Zealand was BRAINDEAD, directed by Peter Jackson.
RESIDENT EVIL was the fist zombie movie made based on a video game.
China has banned all zombie movies.
RESIDENT EVIL was the first zombie movie where animals could be infected as well, probably because they had a bigger budget for SFX and CGI. There are real animals that can mimic zombielike behaviors; various insects, frogs, and crabs.
Technically anyone who rises up from the dead is a zombie. In christian and jewish mythologies there are several humans who rose from the dead.
Also hindu mythology
I really like these because I love to see different jobs and what they do
Do we really want our epidemiologists having strong interests in zombie viruses?!
I honestly wouldn't even be surprised if the world ended and we had a zombie apocalypse 😂
Yes. If this does happen the movie geeks who are epidemiologists could be the ones to save us.
I mean, yes.... but also, no.
I did a paper on the crazies in college, my theory was containment was lost in the plane somehow, the crew panicked and ditched, the virus got crop dusted over the town and the water supply and where the plane ended up didn't matter because the virus had already been distributed. All and all a good movie and good depiction of realistic infection.
Check out Romero's original. The remake is better (a rare thing), but the original has some great stuff.
At 4:10 she says liquid doesn't turn to gas "like that". When trichloroethylene is exposed to normal air it immediately vaporizes into a gaseous form.
I think she meant growth mediums or bodily fluids that might have contagious microbes don't just magically aerosolize.
Pretty on point about the HVAC system in that lab though. Hilarious they're in Level 4 Biohazard suits, but they just have unfiltered regular ventilation going to the entire building.
@@tfgrrl2042 good point and true.
Zombies are my favourite type of Horror genre
Yeah boy😎😎😎
To bad theirs only one zombie anime but it was canceled
Zombies are my phobia
@@sjsnnwej2601 ???🙁🙁🙁
Fun fact: Because of BSE (I was born and raised in England) I'm still not allowed to donate blood in Germany where I live now.
They can't test for CJD?? Wow
Rick would really be upset if he had known all these stuffs 😂
Stuff and thangs
@Night Watcher - KFP operative 'Dark Sun' "im looking for my family"
@Night Watcher - KFP operative 'Dark Sun' cooorallllll"
Im very upset
resident evil got many virus + plagas but because other virus change them into monsters instead of zombies they only counted the one that makes them zombies, i think they also should rated the range of infection if it can infect all living things it should be rated higher
An epidemiologist who thinks the World War Z book was way better and that Z Nation is underrated... Truly a woman after my own heart.
When monty python has history right....
I am not dead yet!
The fact she said the World War Z book was much better than the movie warms my heart! :) The book is a good as the movie is bad.
The book is typical zombie fantasy bunk and the Battle of Yonkers is a travesty written by someone who had less understanding of modern weapons than a 12 year old who plays Call of Duty.
That fungus basically turns the insect into a zombie.
That could happen to us.
If it mutated then yes
I remember reading somewhere of a case where someone was infected with rabies and only sought treatment post-incubation period. Apparently they were subjected to an induced coma for several weeks which slowed down the progression of the infection, during which time medication and other treatment was administered and resulted in a successful recovery.
A young teen in Wisconsin AFAIK, she is the only person to have ever survived rabies.
Should've skipped World War Z altogether; that movie and the zombies in it are nothing like what max brooks wrote about
The movie by itself is a decent movie, but yeah, compared to the book its trash
Been saying that for years. Met the man at comic con and told there’d be a movie. Fast forward I watch said movie, disappointed to how bad it was handled.
@@captainfactoid3867 The book set such a low bar that saying the movie is trash compared to it really isn't saying much
@@Nyx_2142 wait? The book set a low bar? Definitely not
Yes!! Z Nation is totally underrated!!
Hey! Most of my friends went to Kent! Greetings from Cleveland!
YES! When Z nation got some love I was pumped
I wish she'd talked about the virus from that show. We got to see how it was engineered from 3 different diseases, and I wondered what she thought about that. Greatest show ever!
@@cletusbeauregard1972 ah man I hear you I was a big walking dead fan and after a while it got stale then I found z nation and fell in love with it! It’s such a shame they cancelled it, I know it ended with a pretty decent conclusion but I just miss the characters so much and all the different zombie types it was like a left for dead tv series with a bunch of comedy and some serious shit
I was happy Cargo got a mention. Am hoping one of these at some point will mention Wyrmwood: Road of the Dead
Here is the rating of all the movies
Resident Evil 1/10
The Crazies 2/10
Z Nation 2/10
Quarantine 3/10
World War Z 3/10
Cargo 4/10
The Walking Dead 5/10
Zombieland 5/10
The Girl with All the Gifts 6/10
28 Days Later 6-7/10
This was wonderful. Thank you Tara!!
Imagine knowing all of this information, my brain...
The wwz book truly is great. I was so excited when I heard they were making a movie. I thought they were going to adhere to the book and do a semi-documentary style movie. Then I got very disappointed when I saw the trailer and have refused to see it since lol yes, I'm that asshurt. Very good book.
Dude, the book was a fictional survivor guide, literally just a bunch of really short stories. Honestly, the moment I heard about the movie adaptation, I knew it wouldn't be like the book. Reasonably speaking, it can only be done justice if it was made into a TV show that has a format akin to "Kino's Journey -The Beautiful World-".
@@FinalStigma I don't remember WWZ having a survival guide in it, that was Max's other book, The Zombie Survival guide. (which also had very short stories throughout history at the end)
WWZ was about UN agent going around and collecting stories from people as apart of some postwar commission they were doing. The stories were more emotional, better written and more fleshed out than the anecdote sort of stories in the Survival Guide.
But yes, a TV show would have been a better format.
Curious if you read his new one Devolution and if so, what did you think?
Book was typical zombie fantasy junk. About as original as The Walking Dead past season 3
For that one guy complaining their mics suck. They are on a zoom call. What the suppose they do? Bring expensive mics for every guy they interview that they already paid?
Where the heck is the review of I am Legend?
I don’t think they were zombies they are more like vampires like the book
@@Hunter-mj8qg its a kind of vampirism. But not entirely vampire. They are somewhat like mutants
@@rayquan-c1n yeah but in the book they are completely vampires
@@Hunter-mj8qg well, she rewieved films , but even in the film they are not realy zombie.
@@unknow11712 I know
Did they not hear her audio and how cloudy it sounds not good quality
Well we are watching a zoom call lmfao
So
Rating Zombie movie viruses for realism? I'm gonna go with 0/10 across the board because there's no such thing as zombies.
Rabies exists though and it is technically a zombie virus for animals
Should have shown I am legend, I had a depiction in which a disease alters behaviour however maintains basic human characteristics of self preservation and instinct, essentially living zombie like creatures, meaning they aren't "walking dead" so it would make sense for them to live years, and it would also make sense for treatment to be possible. Its the kind of movie that I'd be more interested in hearing her opinion about
Z Nation was hilarious. If you love Americana and zombies, you should love that show.
I'm more interested in i wonder if military or police quarantine zones can use lethal force on people trying to escape, especially in some militaries that uses kill teams on certain outbreaks
It would be difficult in the US....there are so many guns owned by people
5:09
the teeth popping noise so funny to me idk why
I love the concept of the video, but her sound and video quality wouldn't let me finish it.
I am truly gonna be a survivor when this shit happens, I'm prepared
Zombie virus
I'm scared now
Save me
Have I been pronouncing prion wrong this whole time?
You should have recommended the movie America 2020 it’s honestly so comical snd realistic
next video: epidemiologist reviews deadly pandemics
Liked the fungus idea. Might have to search that film out. If you do another Insider there's a comedy take on viral infections in Red Dwarf, a British comedy that might be a fun change from the Zombies.
13:05 knowing it`s happening in our real life kinda make me feel legit scared tho
Next, animal breakdown animal movies.
Lion king 👑
The Jungle book
For sure
With all her quips about the movies I'm a little disappointed she didn't also say "but Quarantine is garbage, watch the original Spanish film instead"
Wanna be safe from zombies? Start a raccoon farm. You gonna be fine.
How did Shaun of the Dead not make the cut?
i can't believe they didn't use scenes from Kingdom. i was actually waiting for that. that's one of the best zumbie shows.
For real!! I love the show so much and I love the origin of the virus as well!
when she was talking about orphanages and prison and the legality she sounded disappointed
So, there was a "zombie"/"virus" movie awhile back....and the intro was 'frozen motion' cameras scenes, where the world was in freeze-frame, but the camera would slowly pull back and reveal more and more in each scene change of the intro. One part of that intro showed a man in a high-rise office, looking at a picture of his family, he was crying, and as the camera pulled back, infected people were breaking through his office door/window and he had just pulled the trigger on a revolver pointed at his temple. CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHAT TF movie that was??? I've looked for YEARS!!!
It wasn’t a movie but a video game called Zombiu. I think you are thinking of the god save the queen trailer.
Considering the current global viral plague and poor education standards, the paucity of comments here compared to cheesy action movies and fantasy weapons is rather telling. Finally, the original The Crazies not crap remakes like every other disappointing expert clip show on yt. Please do more classic films from the 1930s to 1980s instead of the asinine contemporary remake movies.
Why use many word when few do trick?
This was a very fascinating video!
I would love to see him react to "All Of Us Are Dead" such an amazing show
that a crazy scenario a teacher made a virus from mice hormones
Recorded her audio in 1981
If The Walking Dead Zombies didn't rot, would they make more sense?
I think so.
So basically it could never happen...🤔
Yes
2020: unless...
*we hope*
I was surprised she knew about The Last of Us.
I'm glad SOMEONE read World War Z. The documentary style would have been neat, instead of the Pitt action movie we got
