The True Cause of The Infection

[Rakanishu 11]

You can see the "infected" shambling about in every corner of Chenarus, constantly searching for the sweet. tender flesh of the living. We've all had to deal with them at some point or another, but where do they come from? Why are they here? The simple truth is this:

It's not an infection, natural or man-made, that turns men into blood-thirsty savages.

They're not the living dead, magically resurrected from their graves.

They simply suffer from severe malnutrition and vitamin deficiency

To date, there are only 10 super markets in all of Chenarus, and they all have the same things in them, which is beans, beans, spaghetti, beans, sardines and a metric ton of Coke and Pepsi. Nowhere in any town will you find a single piece of meat, shiny apple or sprig of parsley. The human body naturally craves certain vitamins, such as those that you would get out of things that AREN'T BEANS AND PEPSI. If you don't get these vitamins, your skin might turn pale or your bones might break just by brushing against a door.

"But...", you might say, "... what about all the gardens and crops I see while running across the countryside? What about all the deer stands and bear traps I find that are used to hunt wild game?". Well, tell me this. How many animals do you actually see running around in the woods on any given day? Can an entire country really survive on 1 boar every 30 miles? And those crops? If there are so many, why are there no products associated with them ANYWHERE in Chenarus? You will not find a single shred of evidence in the country that says the people of Chenarus ate what they grew. All they ate was beans, whiskey and coke because there was no other food available. Combined with the recent war portrayed in Arma 2, the citizens of the land are probably suffering from massive food shortages and a crippled infrastructure, making the delivery of supplies into the country extremely difficult, if not impossible.

The human body, however, has plenty of iron, fats and other things non-crazy humans need to stay alive. If you already are driven insane by malnutrition, well, how hard could it be rally a few neighbors to tackle a scared, unarmed survivor and take a few bites out of his leg, especially if you had to feed your family?

Think about it.

The alternative is that zombies are real, which would be quite silly.
