Just counted them all and we're up to 75 biting/eating incidents
Timeframe: March 8th 2012 - June 30th 2012.
March: 2
April: 9
May: 22
June: 42
Definitely increasing in numbers. At a steady rate, statistically if this was to continue we'd likely see between 50-65 incidents in July.
Ben: This could fit in with the Feb leak at the CDC center

I feel this is just a new fad in the drug culture - bath salts.

A copycat crime is a criminal act that is modeled or inspired by a previous crime that has been reported in the media or described in fiction.

Well, those cops cannot shoot then.
I do not care what someone may be jacked up on, a bullet to the heart or brain will bring the person down.
Grace Lagat, a northern Uganda native, is mother of two children -- Pauline Oto and Thomas -- both of whom are victims of the disease. For their safety, when she leaves the house, she now ties them up, using fabric like handcuffs. She recalls, "When I am going to the garden, I tie them with cloth. If I don't tie them I come back and find that they have disappeared."
Reportedly the children gnaw at their fabric restraints, like a rabid animals -- or "zombies" of popular fiction -- in an attempt to escape.

A virus that gives uncontrollable rage is not far fetched. Stimulation to the ventrolateral and medial hypothalamus has shown rage driven aggression in laboratory animals. What if there was a virus that makes you release uncontrolled amounts of adrenaline while turning on predatory aggression within the ventrolateral and medial hypothalamus?
It seems that aggression, in its varied forms, arises from very different neural circuits in the brain. In Affective Neuroscience: The Foundations of Human and Animal Emotions (1998), Jaak Panksepp explains that scientists applying electrical stimulation to "slightly different brain zones" in laboratory animals evoke three distinct kinds of aggression. 1) predatory aggression, 2) rage-like aggression, and 3) inter-male aggression or dominance aggression. Panksepp points out that "prolonged social isolation or hunger may increase all forms of aggression, while high brain serotonin activity may reduce them all." Circuitry that prompts aggression is quite specific. Panksepp explains that quiet-biting attack is typically evoked during electrical stimulation of the dorsolateral hypothalamus while rage-driven aggression is typically evoked during electrical stimulation of the ventrolateral and medial hypothalamus.
Panksepp points out that when scientists stimulate specific circuits for rage-driven aggression in humans, the subjects report "experiencing a feeling of intense rage."

The "Zombie" name is what gives it the joke aspect. Drop the "Zombie" because no one dead has risen recently.
