    28 years is a long time, and the zombies can die of starvation. If it’s still post apocalyptic that’d be really far-fetched. That’s more than enough time for things to go back to normal.

      Any story set after an apocalypse is post-apocalyptic. Back to normal is pretty optimistic even for 28 years. Maybe the whole premise is shifted from “zombies” to “long-term consequences of a relatively short period of zombies”? It’s an interesting angle that doesn’t get a lot of attention. What does happen when the zombies finally die off? How does that affect society decades down the road?
