Why would Ebola turn into some Walking Dead type of thing? I can see a destabilization in our civilization due to mass panic if an full on outbreak ever occurred, however, there will be no "zombies" due to this virus, no matter how hard I wish for a zombie apocalypse. Secondly, I doubt any virus can create a zombie apocalypse as most people believe so much. The only likely culprit that can do such a think in my view are fungi or parasites. There are fungi and parasites out there that are designed to take control over designated host targets such as ants, rats, etc. as well as changing their normal behavior, making them seek out to kill or commit suicide by actively hunting out it's natural predator. If there were a fungus or parasite genetically engineered to attack humans while being an airborne contagion and capable of altering our thought process to a more cannibalistic and murderous intent, then I can actually see a zombie apocalypse.
