World War Z Ch. 1-3

Reading the first parts of World War Z was confusing but insightful. It gave it a realistic feel with the introduction being about an interviewer tasked with writing about "The Zombie War." When his work is deemed to emotional and biased, he decides to write a book instead. One could compare his timing of the book to post 9/11. How would anyone know it was too soon to talk about such events?

He starts by interviewing a doctor from China named Dr. Kwang, who tells the interviewer that the first outbreak he saw was in a village called New Dachang. He claimed he met "patient zero" there. It was a young boy who looked dead, but was violent and thrashed through his restraints. The doctor found out the boy went out with his father and came back with a bite. The boy seemed to infect other villagers so the village was put on lock down. At the end of the chapter it is revealed that the doctor was imprisoned without charges & escaped from prison, but it was too late. The outbreak had spread. It always amazes me in story lines similar to this that nobody seems to listen to warning or notice that there is something seriously wrong and dangerous going on. 

The interviewer lands in America and speaks with CIA agent Bob Archer, where he learns the CIA is not how the average American person thinks of them. They knew China was hiding something and thought they were soon about to declare war on the U.S... little did they know the situation was much more grave.
