	if one were to turn into a zombie, could nano-machines (if there were the tech) change them back into normal humans? and were one to be a changed zombie, could you still eat zombie flesh and be fine? what are the moral implications of using such technology?

I believe it would depend of whether the nano-machines were able to resuscitate the dead tissue into living tissue.
I wonder how the machines would handle the brain?

I believe a large factor of why the zombie crave flesh is because the Maslow hierarchy of needs
has been stripped down to its most primal: to eat.

Theoretically, if said nanomachines could combat the virus, then zombie flesh would not produce a zombie-like response,
since the nano-bots would have basically "cured" or created anti-bodies to the virus.

The question wouldn't be why, but why not create a possible cure for the zombie outbreak?
Moreso the ethical implications would be to what degree do we use the nano-machines?

i think it'd all depend on whether we can turn into zombies in the first place.

would one be born predisposed to turn into one later in life?
would one choose to become one?
what are the conditions of being a zombie? zombies in different movies are sometimes a little different.

A couple more factors must be accounted for before moral speculations could be made.
