Well, when u found keyes, he wasn't even human any more, cortana says it. "No human life signs detected, the captain.. he was one of them!?" I wouldn't say he "died" again cuz u punched him in the face and blew it up, but if u look at other floods, even if you shoot their head, the body is still able to move, so I'm guessing when the infection takes over, then the flood proly takes over the body, and no other organs matter. So it's a possibility, but aside from the sergeant being a ninja, i don't think anyone else made it off, unless the flood somehow repaired TnR, and made it off the planet, they probably are dead.
edit:
Actually now i come to think of it, the chief fled the Truth and reconciliation after he got the neural interface, he blew up the PoA, but not the TnR. some flood COULD have made it off halo...
while this is possible, the Covenant showed up very soon after Halo's destruction in the first game, when you begin first strike, the only ships are a few covenant cruisers that show up, the pelican that johnson was in, and the longsword the cheif stole away in.
That means that the flood would have had to repair the Truth & Reconcilliation after the chief left the ship in a banshee, but before the cheif detonated the Pillar of Autumn. Which doesn't leave them much time, besides the fact that the cheif decimated their forces in and around the ship.
However, the Arbiter was in command of the covenant forces on halo, so he has to have survived halo's destruction somehow...
