During the first three chapters of World War Z, Introduction, Warnings, and Blame, The author is going around to different locations and interviewing different people about there experiences with the attack. The first person he interviewed was a nurse who got called to a hall where there several cases of the disease and no one had been taking care of them, but the bite wounds were extremely clean. The next main interview that took place was when a kid and his dad went diving and the boy got bit in the arm, the dad, however never came back. The are several more interviews throughout the first three chapters. They go on to talk about everyones experience with the outbreak and then try to come up with a way to solve the zombie outbreak, but at the moment they are calling the disease rabies because no one really knows what it is.
The part that really got me into the book was when they were talking about the vaccine to cure/ keep from getting the "rabies". It was during an interview and they were talking about how people kept buying the vaccine to cure rabies even though the disease wasn't really rabies. He talked about how he made all these air-purifiers and sold them rather they worked or not. People just bought them because of the fear of getting the disease. He said the best seller was an air-purifier that you put around your neck when you stepped on a plane. This got me interested into the book because its kind of like todays society because today people try to sell just about anything even if it doesn't work. There are so many commercials on tv and in all kinds of media these days trying to sell things. I really want to find out what the people think when they realize that it wasn't rabies and that all the products they bought were for no reason.
