Johnson was part of the Spartan-I program that gave him augmentations.
These augmentations scrambled his nervous system really badly.
The flood controls hosts by hijacking their nervous system.
The flood can't hijack Johnson's nervous system because it is so incredibly messed up, the flood can't make a proper connection.
---------------------
To cover up that Johnson was a Spartan-I, ONI made up "Boren's Syndrome". Boren's Syndrome is a fake disease in which radiation scrambles the nervous system. It does not actually exist, and ONI made it up as a cover-up.
If Johnson went through even part of the Spartan-I agumetation then how is he alive? Ethier the operation worked and you were super human or it failed and you got paralyzed or died.
Spartan I augmentations were far less drastic, and as a result far less effective in creating super humans.
The program was deemed ineffective and soldiers were put back into the regular chain of command.
The program doesn't have many details nor emphasis about deaths, just a generally ineffective program.
