the baby can get infected like this?

Rebecca was already a walker when Clem killed her. And the baby was crying. So when Clem or Kenny shot, wouldn't the blood of Rebecca got into the baby's mouth or eyes??

  • Well he could get infected but i don't he will, it doesn't have to be that realistic i guess, and i think it was a clean shot, i didn't see blood, ill check it again.

  • Yeah, but walker blood generally doesn't do much in the walking dead. Think about it; they smeared it all over their skin, but they didn't asborb it and become infected?

  • Yeah i was thinking the same, if the game was more realistic everybody would be dead by now, but walker blood can kill like in the comics.

  • I think it can only kill you if it gets into your bloodstream.

  • I think its more important if it gets directly into you like mouth or eyes

  • Yup i just checked, but i think the baby is fine cos Rebeccas head fell not close to the baby.

  • Dunno why you got a dislike when you are right, unless theres a cut in the skin.

    Also saliva i think, i think thats what triggers the fever plus all the bacteria it has.

  • Agreed with AmazingAura01. Skin is actually a deterrent for infection; that's one of the main physiological purposes of skin--to keep infection out and separate all the outside nasties from our vulnerable insides. It has a slew of different defenses to keep bacteria and other pathogens out or kill them outright. If there was a breach in the skin (a cut) then that's where infection could seep in.

  • Yeah, I think you are right about that too. UPVOTES to counter all these downers!

  • Nah, dislike trolls, dislike trolls everywhere.

  • If the baby dies will it become infected? Maybe it didn't pick up the virus, or whatever makes people turn yet.

  • Im pretty sure babies have the virus too, they are connected to their mom via umbilical cord so the same virus can get in the baby.

  • The reason Lori/Comic Lori was scared the baby could die inside her... and ya know tear her apart?

  • Yeah, and I doubt Telltale will make it TOO realistic

  • What would the baby zombie do though? Gum you to death? I suppose babies do have sharp fingernails though.

  • Clem smeared it all over her skin when she had a cut on her face and nothing happened to her.

    But who knows, the baby could have a weaker immune system and succumb to the infection.

    She didn't smear it on the side with the cut.

  • Well i don't think a baby would kill with bites, but if he dies inside maybe the baby would rot in her belly and that would kill her?

  • Like i said there ^ and also his saliva would infect the mother probably because the baby is inside :0
