The #Zombie meme was so strong that there were even kids cartoons whose plot was built around the idea of a mad scientist who was going to turn everyone into a Living Dead with a #vaccine. Here the #Minions:
10 years ago John Vervaeke, Prof of #cognitive science at Toronto Uni, wrote a book on the Zombie Zeitgeist which I think he correctly predicted. What is a Zombie, and why were there so many around? The #covid19 Pandemic when you come to think of it was predicted by so many #zombie films: research labs leak virus which then zombifies the masses cowering everyone in their homes, with as only remedy a vaccine that takes too long to come.

Bizarrely enough it is a Trump lookalike villain “El Macho” who employs the evil genius Dr Nefario to make the vaccine that turns every #Minion into a Mad #Zombie.
(Sometimes one has to wonder if US politics is not just based on cartoons!)
And in the end the cure for the #vaccine induced hysterical minion #zombies is an oral medicament - also produced by the same Dr Nefario btw.
( Had the Minion story tellers predicted #paxlovid or #ivermectin? )

Remember the #Minions love uni-thought and strong leaders.
