The principal issue is attempting to do anything which isn't the zombie infestation gets hard to perform, mainly since player zombies like to wow classic gold hangout at quest givers and other spots where lots of players have a tendency to collect. Because this event also comes with a whole questline that takes place from the zones across Stormwind and Orgrimmar, there is ample opportunity to camp outside and possibly infect as many players as you can. However, one positive shift in the last time the zombie infestation occurred is that Blizzard appears to have made it more difficult to spread it to the rest of Azeroth. Among the first things I did when I got infected was to hearth to Dalaran, but once I came, I wasn't infected anymore. However, I was able to carry it to Boralus through using the portal site in the mage tower, so it's not a perfect system yet.

The main point to understand is two separate events are moving on. There's the scourge invasion and the questline, that requires players to Icecrown and sends gamers on a goose hunt for Nathanos. Then there's the zombie infestation, which adds just a small PvP aspect for everything. It is not surprising a few folks would want to get involved in the first event but not the moment, as not everyone likes PvP or using their class and race abilities taken away and replaced by other abilities. Blizzard could make the infestation only active for a few of those weeks of the invasion, however, that's no fun for anyone who misses that week and would want to engage. Frankly, the best solution probably is to leverage the Warmode system. An infestation is basically a PvP event , so having the capability to opt-in with Warmode makes sense. Even doing something where for most of the invasion, players needed to cheap wow gold classic opt into the infestation by selecting Warmode, but then at the previous week, even until Shadowlands dropped, the infestation would influence everyone, would probably be the best solution.
