I think it was a good choice by the production team to show how it started, by telling the story of one of the more recognizable walkers in the first episode.

 :headscratch:

I see the origins of one of the more memorable walkers, but that still doesn't tell me "how it started"...

They have been very vague about it, since the beginning.

The news reports in the background speak of an illness that was spreading rapidly in the population. Burning of dead bodies in the streets etc. It's a sickness that must have infected large parts of the population overwhelming the emergency services and later the military. That it's a bug was all but confirmed by the scientist in the season 1 finale.

Yes, but that information was never a secret or a matter of contention

Maybe not, but that's the info we got. Exactly where the bug came from is not likely to be revealed anytime soon, if at all. All the people who would know are probably already dead (or undead).

The Zombie Survival Guide, which I have on my Kindle) states that is a virus named Solanum.  :D

Other sources say that it is a Human Vampiric Virus from the Mononegavirales family of viruses which is propagated mainly through ticks of the family Ixodidae  :aok

However, neither has been mentioned in this series    :(

Sometimes you don't know. Even the dude at the CDC didn't really know.

I still wanna know what he whispered into Rick's ear.  I'm sure it wasn't a pecan pie recipe.

Still wanna know about that helicopter, in Atlanta, too.

It was a pandemic that they never got control of. CDC couldn't figure it out.
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.
