| Dec 4, 2015 at 6:40 | comment | added | Chris B. Behrens | Yeah, nothing magical about the werewolf virus. Oops, i mean zombie virus. | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 15:28 | comment | added | ThePopMachine | I agree that there's nothing magic about a quote that "everyone is infected" a few years ago. It could be a generalization or they could simply change their mind later. There being no direct evidence of whether the virus is transmitted to fetuses means we don't know. (But please not this!) | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 9:08 | comment | added | Taladris | I don't even ask for real life science. The "everybody" is not magic, even in the TV show. A similar question to mine is: if the astronauts from the International Space Station could make it back to Earth safely (and assuming they left before the virus started to spread), was it stated if they would be infected? | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 8:34 | comment | added | Cherubel | @Taladris i do understand you but this site is littered wit verified answers from the quotes of writers and producers/showruners about them stating "no cure" and "everybdy is infected" RL science doesnt apply in fiction if the writer cuts it out or states something wonky. Just take a look at star wars. | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 7:12 | comment | added | Taladris | @Cherubel: that is the most likely answer and I was asking mostly because I was reading theories about the end of the series. But no cure is not the same as no way to get infected (and I am not speaking about immunity, only about the unknown vector of infection). "Everybody is infected" is an exxageration: there will always be isolated people that will not be contaminated. Depending on how the virus spread, not being born yet is a mean of isolation. | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 6:46 | comment | added | Cherubel | The writers and producers and everybody else in between have said there is no cure, everybody is infected. Now by everybody I assume that means, babies, toddlers, adolescents young teens, grownups and everybody else I might have forgotten. | |
| Dec 2, 2015 at 2:58 | comment | added | Wad Cheber | Not worth posting as an answer, so I'll leave it here: We don't know, but it seems safe to assume the answer is yes. | |
