Correct in one way but it isn't the be all and end all. It is a large part though.

By prepping you adjust luck in your favour. Sure the fallout could land on your house, the Patient Zero could be a neighbour or the band of bikers sets up residence next door. All we can do is look at the risks and reduce them as much as possible.

Remember that at 14,000,000 to one the lottery is still being won almost every week.

Sometimes you can do everything right but still fail.
