That's why it depends on the size of the outbreak. If the situation gets resolved, holding out won't have been so bad. On that note, depending where you hold up it could be the best option for a total apocalypse. If you're in the middle of nowhere in the mountains or an island or whatever isolated location, where you can sustain your own food source and survive off the location then staying in one place would definitely be the best in that regard. I guess hermits have us all beat.
