In the novel World War Z, the zombies are defeated through knowledge and cooperation. Eventually, the world’s militaries figured out the best way to combat the zombies and set to work. There is no cure or magic bullet, just lots of hard work.
The movie takes a different approach. Apparently, the zombie virus is sentient enough to realize that eating sick people won’t allow it to spread. With that in mind, the World Health Organization decides to infect everyone with a curable pathogen so the zombies will stop eating everyone.
This is why I personally hate the idea of a virus causing the dead to walk. It’s as bad as treating vampirism like a virus. Keep your science away from my fictional monsters. It weakens them as a threat.
