World War Z(INTRO, Warnings, Blame)

     World War Z has begun.  The interviewer, narrator, is going around the world and interviewing the outbreak of this unknown virus that has spread all over.  It starts off with patient zero in Chongqing in the United Federation of China.  A physician, Dr. Kwang, tells us of his first encounter of the outbreak when his sent to a remote village New Dachang.  When he got there seven villagers were laid in cot, locked up and not being cared for.  As story goes on, a boy was out with his father diving in the Three Gorges Reservoir.  They were treasure hunting in the now submerged old Dachang village.  The boy came up with a bite wound and the father didn't come up at all. The young boy was cold, gray skin, violent temperament, and wild eyes.  The story continues on and and for each country they give there own background story of before and after the outbreak.  Once the interviewer gets back home, him and the rest of the world are trying to figure out what is the next step, now that there is these so call things called zombies.  Zombie Defense?  People are now just trying to live there day to day life with this dreaded threat breathing down there necks.
     The part that really got me hook and interested was patient zero.  The boy came up from out of the water with a bite mark and no father.  What did they see down there?  What was down there?  Is there something significant down there that the interviewer should of investigated into?  So many things raced through my head at the one incident.  Also, amazed how quickly the outbreak spread and in an instant the entire world was caught in the net.  I cant wait to read on and see what are the action now of the people around the world? Is there going to be a Pangaea type place where everyone meets up and lives as one community fighting off these zombies?  This kind of put into perspective the viruses we have today and how easily they spread today and why this book is so relate-able.  Right now we are having a respiratory virus going around and hospitalizing children, and these stories make this the zombie ones sound more and more realistic.
