I was trying to rationalize for exactly how long he was out - a week, a month, longer? I don't think this was a quick infection, but it looks as though it eventually consumed hundreds, maybe thousands of people within the tiny defined space of the story's scene (Atlantic seaboard only?). The infection also had enough of a intermittent period where maybe mass exoduses of cities were arranged, the army was mobilized, and the 'nightwalkers' were relatively contained and/or disposed of (within the confines of the hospital, at least).
I wonder if this is just a one-shot mini-series adaptation of the graphic novels, because while there is only a confirmed six-episode first season, I can see the how and whereby that this series expanded into a saga (read as:
multiple seasons, story arcs).
