Boren's Syndrome: Difference between revisions

Line 13:

Ironically, some combination of the disease's (apparently) multiple pathologies discourages [[Flood Super Cell]]s. This explains why Sergeant Avery Johnson could not be infected when he and his squad were ambushed by the [[Flood]] on [[Installation 04]], leading Master Chief to his moral dilemma. Dr. [[Catherine Elizabeth Halsey|Catherine Halsey]] guesses that there'd be a billion to one chance that Johnson's condition could be reproduced.

Technically, there is no explicit proof of what about Boren's Syndrome discourages Flood. It may be that the nervous system of someone with the disease simply cannot support Flood. A strong hypothesis is that an infection form attempting to latch on to a host with Boren's Syndrome would recognize the characteristic neurological disturbances as "irreparable damage".~~<br /><br />~~

* Despite Sergent Johnson's immunity to the flood, through an oversight in Halo 3, it is possible to have him infected by flood.

*Once infected, he take on the look of a generic marine infected.

*Since Johnson is programmed to revive after being killed, stopping an infection midway will result in momentary death, suddenly changing to a marine infected model and getting up.

*Johnson actually has dialog for infection sequences, including ''This was for Hocus!''
