So the basic premise is what would the international Geopolitical repercussions of 28 Days later be. Essentially the rage virus has completely infected something like 99 percent of the pre Rage British population with survivors in Great Britain being limited to rather small scattered groups hiding. The infection is stopped from effecting the rest of the world. So how do the rest of the world's countries react to one of the most powerful nation state being essentially wiped out from within in a matter of days? Do we see the emergence of various national "Bunker State" mentalities as countries fortify their border and invest more heavily in various military and preventative measures?
Personally in 28 Days Later I assume a large reason why the Rage Virus didn't spread into Europe was because France and the other nearby European nation states started shooting down anything flying out of Britain sometime on the first day or so. I believe in 28 Days later before it's revealed that the rest of the world survived that the last thing British survivors heard from abroad was out breaking emerging elsewhere. I assume if that was true (instead of just false info spread into Britain in a attempt to prevent infected survivors from trying to flee abroad) that it was probably something like outbreaks at Airports which had received airliners of infected from Britain. If that did happen I'm wagering that the infections were contained by nearby nations panic bombing their effected airports.
Personally I also think that we'd see foreign military interventions into infected Great Britain fairly rapidly. I'm not saying other nations would send in ground troops (other then say small scale covert spec ops raids) but would resort to air bombardment and having naval vessels shell coastal cities.
So any thoughts?
