Waiting a few more days would most likely end badly.
The first, and most predicable scenario, is that the flood is able to surround the control room. With the teleportation grid most likely inactive, Chief, Arby and Johnson would never make it out.
Second, Forerunner structures are tough, but they aren't invincible. The Flood could amass enough firepower to punch through that door.
Third, it wouldn't be hard for the Flood to board the Dawn. It's pretty surprising they didn't before its takeoff.
