9. Correct. However, Flood may appear in flashbacks.
No, the only Flood outbreak on Earth happened in Voi during the events of Halo 3. The flashbacks only go back up to 6 hours before the Rookie wakes up, so that means that you play as your ODST squadmates that dropped in to New Mombasa with you. This means that the Flood are not in the campaign.
How do you know that the flashbacks are only 6 hours back?
Because Bungie has confirmed numerous times that you roam New Mombasa, and then you find a beacon and flashback to play as your squadmate as he is fighting in New Mombasa earlier that day. They did not go down to New Mombasa and then back up to UNSC Say My Name, so the only logical thing is that this is after the drop. The drop occurred 6 hours before the Rookie wakes up in the city, so the earliest a flashback could be is 6 hours before the Rookie finds a beacon.
Oh, okay then.
