Armies have leaders who can be reasoned with (maybe). Armies are made of people who tend to who die over time, and do not create more of themselves (exponentially) out of your peasants.Diseases are not creatures. They have no mercy. When dealing with them, you must treat the disease as something which must be exterminated. Not contained, not appeased.So, extreme tactics are warranted. Look at history: it was not uncommon to bolt the gates of a city and say "too bad" to whomever was trapped within. Quarantine isn't a bad idea when you value all of humanity over the life of one human. (It was finally the fire of London that killed off the black plague hanging around there, wasn't it?)Zombies of this nature demand a similar response: wall off the affected area, and fireball it until nothing in the box is moving.Cheers, -- N</blockquote>
