Zombie Response
Rick, the Zombie boy
The Zombie Response project is an initiative of the Community Health team, to devise information and educational resources for public health interventions that manage and protect communities from health epidemics. It is felt that the popular fiction of zombies provides a number of opportunities for considering many angles of public health, from understanding viruses, physiology and epidemiology, through to mental health and a range of social issues.
