Be prepared

Well that's one calamity we have some preparation for, at least.

A new YouGov Omnibus survey discovers that 11% of Brits have a zombie plan. Younger people are much more likely to have one than older Brits: approaching a quarter (23%) of 18-24 year olds know what they would do in the event of the dead developing a taste for human flesh, compared to just 3% of those aged 55 and over. Men are also more likely to have zombie plans than women (14% vs 8%).

The single most common plan (45%) is finding somewhere to hole up and hide, with planners’ own homes or those of their family being the most likely location. Hiding at home featured in 40% of plans that involved holing up (or 18% of all zombie plans overall).
