I don't like when shows think that the viewer is dumb and would have had Joel saying: "hey that kid just got an injury and tested positive for the zombie fungus that is incurable and he just got euthanized because they turn into zombies within 24 hours"
I prefer getting the hints so you can put the pieces together (injury, positive red test, needle, dead body).

You'd have to be brain dead not to understand the scene.
The only way they could've made it more obvious was to have someone breaking the fourth wall.
