What do UK scientists know… that they aren’t telling us?!

From the UK:

Do these scientists have privileged information about the when/where of the impending outbreak?
Which government agency is paying for this type of research?
If a zombie outbreak is completely fictional (like most people think), why would UK scientists be modeling it?
Aren’t there plenty of infectious disease outbreaks to be modeled – swine flu, west nile, etc?

From my experience, scientists don’t waste time or money on foolish, worthless research.

More to come…
