The Great Panic

The outbreak reaches mass proportions as common people become aware of the situation.  Reaction is brash for the masses while heroes and opportunists rise from the chaos.  As infection rates increase, more speculation is held and the situation is getting closer to the cohesive definition of an outbreak of  the undead.

The large range of emotion and reaction in this section of the book made it a great read.  People dealing with the outbreak vary from those becoming heroes, the cynical opportunists, and those that let their confusion lead to inaction.  That was my favorite part of the read.
