It's kinda inconsistent in the TWD zombieverse that a bite always kills you if you don't amputate. Kirkman says it's because of the infection with the saliva into the bloodstream.
Yet in the comics one can deep-kiss a zombiegirl (without teeth) and nothing happens, though there are ALWAYS microscopic wounds inside one's mouth. You can even bathe in zombieblood/body-fluids and nothing happens, yet a fucking scratch kills you.
