NYC Releases Manual For the Apocalypse

The state of New York has released a document entitled the “New York State Public Health Legal Manual” that tells to rescuers, doctors and government officials how the judicial system would work in the even of the zombie apocalypse, a terrorist attack, major radiological or chemical contamination or some other widespread epidemic. You can download the PDF by clicking the link above or by clicking the picture to the left. According to Professor Shauna Disastro, DontGetBit’s soon to be Professor of “Zombology and Survivalist Studies”… “I find very little about it shocking or surprising, nor that it is so detailed, it IS New York… the over governmented beaucratic craphole”.

Imagine if you will… The ultimate zombie apocalypse is upon us and the government is trying to regain control. Zombies and fleeing humans run the streets. The blood of the world flows into the Earth as you and your team of Zombie Survivalists hold up in your safe house, defending your families lives from the zombie hoards that roam the streets trying to eat you! The government orders Martial Law. What powers does the government hold? How does the justice system work? Both are are powerful questions with difficult answers. But how about more serious questions like what to do in quarantines, closing businesses, mass evacuations, warrant-less searches of homes, killing of infected animals and seizure of property, when laws can be suspended and whether infectious people can be isolated against their will or subjected to mandatory treatment.

The most interesting line in the manual according to the NYTimes:

The suspension of laws, it says, is subject to constitutional rights. But then it adds, “This should not prove to be an obstacle, because federal and state constitutional restraints permit expeditious actions in emergency situations.”

FM3-05-70 Survival Field Manual

A few weeks back we posted that you could download the FM 21-76 US Army Survival Manual. Well we now have the FM3-05-70 Survival Field Manual Reprint of 2003 Edition available for download. Just click the image or click here to download the PDF. As a soldier, you can be sent to any area of the world. It may be in a temperate, tropical, arctic, or subarctic region. You expect to have all your personal equipment and your unit members with you wherever you go. However, there is no guarantee it will be so. You could find yourself alone in a remote area—possibly enemy territory—with little or no personal gear.

This manual provides information and describes basic techniques that will enable you to survive and return alive should you find yourself in such a situation.

Podcast Review: On The Edge of Darkness

On The Edge of Darkness by Chris Martens
How well could a group of men confront the every growing threat, ever spreading infection, of the Zombie infestation?

Pretty damn well if you ask us here at Don’t Get Bit! Season 1 is complete and you can get it from ITunes here. The story so far is that a former bodyguard working on-board the ship of a rich family is suddenly thrown into the world of zombies when the family he’s hired to protect suddenly turns into said zombies.
