Introduction
Welcome to "Outbreak", a STEM focussed unit of work with a unique focus on the mysterious world of zombies. In this unit, we will conduct an exploration of the undead, dissecting the science behind their existence and delving into the intricacies of disease transmission in a post-apocalyptic scenario.
Zombies, once relegated to the realms of horror fiction and pop culture, have become an interesting subject for scientific inquiry. Beyond the narratives, the undead provide a thought-provoking lens through which we can examine essential scientific principles, particularly in the field of infectious diseases. |

Our central focus will be on understanding how diseases spread among the undead and, by extension, how these principles parallel real-world scenarios. Through this exploration, you will gain a deeper appreciation for the interconnected nature of biology, epidemiology, mathematics, and technology. This unit is designed to engage yous in critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaborative inquiry as they work together to analyze the hypothetical scenarios presented by a zombie outbreak.
As we venture into the intricacies of zombie physiology and the dynamics of disease transmission, you will have the opportunity to apply your STEM knowledge to devise strategies for containment, prevention, and survival. So, fasten your seatbelts, don your metaphorical hazmat suits, and prepare to navigate the infectious landscape of the undead.
