TikTok seems convinced that a zombie apocalypse will happen in 2022 as many videos are sweeping the platform. However, these are just rumours.
This is not the first time that social media users have been convinced that the end of the world is near. Two weeks ago, there was speculation that the world would end due to the CERN restart of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).
As expected, this speculation was wrong, just like the one about the zombie apocalypse.
Videos of the zombie apocalypse are going viral in 2022
TikTok is convinced that a zombie apocalypse is on its way in 2022 due to the many videos that have gone viral on the platform. Some look back at the viral video of a woman many thought was a zombie. The video became popular in 2021 and it was later revealed that the woman was in a state of mental disorder and this was the reason for her appearance.
On the other hand, videos, where people were referring to a 2021 article about a possible zombie outbreak in 2022, were also circulating online. Some users have also spread rumors that the CDC has come up with guidelines to follow in the event of a zombie outbreak.
In fact, there is no truth to these rumors and these are just fake stories by TikTok users.
There is zombie awareness month
Although there is no evidence that zombies exist, a zombie awareness month is observed every year from May 1 to May 31. This is a special month for all those who believe that zombies will exist someday.
Here, people who believe in this come together to host events and raise awareness about what to do in the event of a zombie apocalypse.
In fact, there are many books that talk about what one should do in case of being attacked by zombies. However, it is important to note that there is no real evidence that zombies exist.
