Brooks states that zombies are created by a virus he calls “Solanum” (Brooks, 2003). He explains that the virus travels through the victim’s blood to their brain where it eventually causes death, and the creation of a new organ. This new organ can control the recently deceased body and does not require any outside source of energy to function. This virus, according to Brooks is both highly contagious and toxic to virtually all life forms other than itself. This includes animals of every type. Brooks contends that the majority of microbiota are not even capable of existing in tissue that is infected with this virus (Brooks, 2003)
This concept of what a zombie is and how it is created partially supports my views on zombies likely being caused
