We don't know that's when they turn however, it doesn't seem like 5 minutes for the guy at the beginning who turns though it's not clear when exactly he dies. Look at it from the perspective of the characters, they don't know when the transformation occurs, whether you actually have to be dead to turn (for all they know they could all be slowly turning it just speeds up when you die), and hell I doubt Kenny, Lily or Lee even know themselves how long it takes for the body to shut down.
