Yes, Andrea dies in The Walking Dead as she was bitten by a zombified Milton, who was The Governor’s, right-hand man. The Governor killed Milton and kept him in the same room where he tied Andrea up to a chair. As Andrea was trying very hard to cut herself up, Milton lay dying and was later inevitably reincarnated as a walker. Unfortunately, Andrea wasn’t quick enough and was bitten by the zombified Milton.
When Rick and the group reach there, they find that Andrea lay dying; Andrea asks for a gun to put herself down before she turns into a walker. Other members of the group, including Rick, walk out of the room except for Michonne, who stays by her side as she shoots herself dead.
