So how did the virus in 28 Days Later spread outside of its city of origin

Let's dispel with this fiction that Doom Art doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

The birds fly around and drop blood soaked eyeballs on people

there's countryside and shit

and the zombies aren't exactly intelligent

and they starve after a few weeks

then there's no knowing whether animals can get infected. for all we know, some infected person got bit by a mosquito, then that mosquito bit a normal person and that infected them somehow.

People's behavior during COVID put to rest any notion that a zombie plague would ever be contained. Folks would do everything in their power to spread it far and wide, just because they don't like fancy-schmancy experts telling them to stay home, get vaccinated, and wear masks.

People's behavior during COVID

In every other zombie movie it's a slow burning virus that takes time to kill you if you get bit. That leaves ample time for people to try to hide the bite and travel around.

You're right though in that it's different with this one. You're infected in seconds so there's no time to travel around to different areas. The whole infection would have had to radiate out from that lab. Because again, people didn't have time to get bit and take a flight home starting their own clusters of infection.

They probably didn't think much of it, or they wanted us to think that 28 days was enough time for the infection to spread across the country.

You'd have a group of people going out and deliberately getting bit and going on social media talking about how nothing is happening and it's all a lie.

You'd have people having someone not infected bite them so they could get on social media talking about how they haven't turned so it's fake.

You'd have infected people before turning talk about how they're eating horse paste and drinking essential oils, saying it's a cure.

All kinds of other things.

To this day, I still don't why this movie is so well praised. I found it pretty boring outside "those" moments, and definitely didn't find it scary in the slightest.

I imagine the plot point of the sequel where there are asymptomatic people was a thing

Wasn't the plot of 28 Weeks Later basically an explanation?

The mother was an asymptomatic carrier and in the end, the son was too and spread it to France. It's been a very long time since I've seen the 2nd one, so I may be totally off.

So even if the UK was exceedingly negligent, it's not leaving England.
