Yeah this burning question has been floating around here for a while. I'll give the same answer that I did before. Zombies are dead people who walk the earth chewing on various body parts of the living. Infected people, such as the ones in 28 Days Later have never been dead.Just a little cranky. If you kill the infected person, they will stay dead,It's not pinin,' it's passed on! This infected person is no more! It has ceased to be! It's expired and gone to meet its maker! This is a late infected person! It's a stiff! Bereft of life, it rests in peace! Its metabolical processes are of interest only to historians! It's hopped the twig! It's shuffled off this mortal coil! It's run down the curtain and joined the choir invisible! This.... is an EX-INFECTED PERSON!

Forgive me for stealing from Monty Python, but it seemed appropriate.
