damn, I've had almost this exact same idea
funny how of all the movies that came out of COVID none of them have seriously dealt with capitalism's failure to deal with the pandemic. ofc the rich assholes who greenlight movies wouldn't want us thinking about that
About 10 hours ago I made my nth comment about how freaked out I am that Americans basically put the deaths of 1.1+ million of their fellow citizens right into the memory hole. The lessons pols learned was be Trumpian about public health at all times. Tell the public to do what it likes. Take out the "public" in public health. Put the onus on the individual if they want to protect their health or their loved ones or the public. Never follow the science and handle any public health issue - no matter how severe or deadly not with science but with spin. Make your communication strategy bald face lying. Put in toady stooges at the CDC, etc.
Maybe one day a covid movie with a message (sort of) will finally come out. If that actually happens - it will surely be a comedy and capitalism won't be referred to. The blame will be put on greed, sloth, stupidity, ineptitude, "politics", etc.
I don't doubt there are enough comrade filmmakers who might try to make a movie like that someday, but actually getting it funded by the money ghouls is another story
but who knows, Boots Riley got a show on Amazon so anything is possible
Michael Moore presents: Sicko 2, Sickoer
Movie Trailer Voice: No matter how hard the government tried. No matter how much the president cared about his flock. The people refused to listen. There was no holding them back. This is the story. Of greed. Of sloth. Of stupidity. Choose life. Choose mask-free. Choose their personal space. Choose blame. Choose crammed public transport. Who needs heroin, when you can inject bleach straight into your veins. Starring Ewan McGregor. This is Coronaspotting.
Red Markets is a game about ~~poverty~~ a zombie apocalypse where the US federal government has written off the western states and the people that live there as "The Loss" and attempts to enforce a sense of "normality" on the remainder of the country (although the game takes place in The Loss and I don't think that the eastern US has that much detail on it.)
They're not dying from zombie bites, they're dying with zombie bites.
Bite related complications.
Succumbing to comorbidities after a bite.
Oh! Oh! And it keeps making new vulnerable people because even the healthiest person getting bit by a zombie fucks their whole life up 15% of the time?
Sounds a lot like Jaws. The mayor refuses to close the beach even though he knows there's a shark because it would hurt tourism.
We did it in real life, just without zombies
Maybe not zombies, but it's not uncommon for urban fiction to have demons/cryptids/etc up to their evil business, only doing so successfully because they target the 'less dead'. Closest I can think is Alice Isn't Dead and Blood Ties.

my partner just tested positive for zombie and i am now feeling sick, ama i guess
Wayward Pines, at least towards the end of it. Not zombies though, but something akin.
