The survivors usually begin scavenging for food, weapons and other supplies in a world reduced to a mostly pre-industrial hostile wilderness. Basic services such as piped water supplies and electrical power shut down, mainstream mass media cease broadcasting, and the national government of affected countries collapses or goes into hiding. In either scenario, this causes the outbreak to become an exponentially growing crisis: the spreading "zombie plague" swamps law enforcement organizations, the military and health care services, leading to the panicked collapse of civil society until only isolated pockets of survivors remain. Some stories have every corpse rise, regardless of the cause of death, whereas others require exposure to the vector of infection. In others versions, a specific parasite or infection is known to be the cause, framing events much like a plague. In some versions, the reason the dead rise and attack is unknown, rendering the whole situation inexplicable. Typically only a few individuals or small bands of survivors are left living. Zombie apocalypse is a genre of fiction in which civilization collapses due to overwhelming swarms of zombies.
