(NaturalNews) Remember when the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released a bizarre and cryptic warning back in May warning Americans to prepare for a "zombie apocalypse" (http://www.naturalnews.com/032454_z...).

Well now authorities in the UK have apparently done the same thing, with supposedly "top secret" reports revealing contingency plans should there be an "outbreak" of zombies.

According to a recent report in the UK's Guardian, a man by the name of "P Store" contacted officials in Bristol and asked what plans the city had in place in the event of an invasion by the undead. Peter Holt, the city's service director of communication and marketing, apparently responded to him by sharing a secret document that outlines preparation tactics for various levels of zombie invasion.

"Please note that this document contains various reactions as it has been considered that some information contained therein must be redacted for the purpose of safeguarding national security," states the letter's headline. It then goes on to detail instructions for dealing with four stages of zombie invasion: ambient zombie level, enhanced activity level, major outbreak, and zombie pandemic level.

The rest of the report notes areas around town that are more prone to zombie invasion than others, and instructs the staff to whom the document was originally written to listen for certain codewords on radio and television that are indicative of a zombie invasion.

It did cause a distraction.  I bet it will get more bizzare as the time approaches.

Pat, you have a point.  Radioactive zombies.  OMG!  Supposedly, the CDC was saying being prepared for zombies is similar to preparing for disasters.  A rather odd analogy, but perhaps trying to reach younger people.

OMG...You got to be kidding.  They want us to be prepared for Zombies.  I guess anything is possible.  Who knows what radiation will do.

Update:  Supposedly, this is a spoof.

"Pride and Prejudice and Zombies".....(what a way to ruin one of my favorite romantic classics!!) unless...maybe.. Colin Firth plays the part..lol.

OkeeDokee, now, I've heard it ALL!

Definitely something is amiss with this message & probably a little of what you've both said (Cheryl & Jason), Maybe other underlying meanings intended...like we are a Zombie-dumbed down society.... asleep at the wheel. Time to wake up. Zombies..!.

Read the Health Ranger's article.  His satire is priceless, but I think he believes CDC is trying to use pop culture to reach younger people.

The Health Ranger did a wonderful satire on it:  http://www.naturalnews.com/032454_zombie_apocalypse_CDC.html.
