Estimated Deaths in the First Week (Non-Zombie Causes)

This does not include zombie infections, meaning the true death toll would be even higher. With a world population of 36+ billion, the number of deaths within one week from non-zombie-related causes is estimated as follows:

Direct Causes (Due to Lack of Medical Care & Societal Collapse)

Natural deaths (normal mortality rate): ~2.34 million

Deaths from societal collapse (lack of medical care, starvation, stress): ~11.69 million

Asthma-related deaths (without medication or inhalers): ~14.4 million

Cancer patients (without treatment): ~8 million

Paralysed/immobile individuals (without care): ~9.6 million

Total Non-Zombie Deaths: ~43.69 million

Indirect Causes (Due to Collapse & Chaos)

Suicides (despair, hopelessness): ~8 million

Accidents (fires, infrastructure collapse, vehicle crashes): ~8 million

Exposure (lack of shelter, dehydration, extreme weather): ~16 million

Violence (riots, looting, killings in panic): ~32 million

Total Indirect Deaths: ~64 million

Grand Total (Non-Zombie + Indirect Causes): ~107.69 million deaths in the first week
