However, this restriction will not apply in the event of the occurrence (certified by the United States Centers for Disease Control or successor body) of a widespread viral infection transmitted via bites or contact with bodily fluids that causes human corpses to reanimate and seek to consume living human flesh, blood, brain or nerve tissue and is likely to result in the fall of organized civilization.

What if it's mediated by a non-viral disease vector, like a bacterium?

Sadly this is not included in the German TOS which I get redirected to automatically.

there is a language switcher at the upper right corner. Currently on your site there is 'Deutsch' if you click on it and click on English you can view the english tos.

Btw. here is what he meant:

    57.10 Acceptable Use; Safety-Critical Systems. Your use of the Lumberyard Materials must comply with the AWS Acceptable Use Policy. The Lumberyard Materials are not intended for use with
    life-critical or safety-critical systems, such as use in operation of medical equipment, automated transportation systems, autonomous vehicles, aircraft or air traffic control, nuclear
    facilities, manned spacecraft, or military use in connection with live combat. However, this restriction will not apply in the event of the occurrence (certified by the United States
    Centers for Disease Control or successor body) of a widespread viral infection transmitted via bites or contact with bodily fluids that causes human corpses to reanimate and seek to 
    consume living human flesh, blood, brain or nerve tissue and is likely to result in the fall of organized civilization.

This also fails to include multicellular alien parasites. They've really left themselves open here.

Anchored link to 57: https://aws.amazon.com/service-terms/#57._Amazon_Lumberyard_....

It doesn't seem possible to link to 57.10 directly. The word "zombie" also doesn't appear, which made it even harder to understand this submission.

Or something like a prion that isn't alive so isn't really an infection?
