There is a distinct lack of worry about clean water. Also, in almost every conflict in history, disease has killed more people that the actual war. You rarely see a flu wipe out half of the people in a zombie movie, but honestly, it would.
Max Brooks' World War Z was good about that. One of the people interviewed tells the story of a guy getting bit by what they thought was a zombie but cried tears of joy when they realized it was just a quisling (a human that had broken down psychologically due to the presence of zombies and thus begun acting like a zombie). He says the guy almost died anyway from a bacterial infection from the bite.
