Johnson is immune to the flood infection (i think... i heard something about this, it supposedly explains it in the books) because of some genetic desease. I think that somehow, his immunity has something to do with how the flood will be defeated. I'm not sure how it will be done but it is the only way i can think of for the flood to be destroyed other than activating the rings.

Yes, but over half of the people who play Halo don't know this. Bungie is aware of this and won't use that to kill the flood. Nice idea though. I just wish everyone was hardcore, that way everybody would be able to make games that fit seamlessly into every thing else.

H eis immune to the infection forms, yes. doesn't mean that a combat form couldn't just walk over and whack his head off.

That would be correct, No-one knows that Sergeant Johnson is immune.....and yes, he can get his head "whacked off"

Johnson could be the key to an immunity or possible vaccine to Flood infection. He could be the answer to protecting the human race. The Chief decided not to tell about Johnson, because ONI and researchers would almost definetly kill him trying to unlock that. In the long run, that could defeat the flood procreating through the human race. However, that means we still have to kill every last one of the squishy freaks.

Like in Halo CE, where MC finds Jenkins' helmet and he puts the video chip into his neck and watches the video where the marine squad is dropped off in the forrest, then go inside the building, they get attacked by infection form Flood. The Flood killed (or turned into Flood) the marines in that squad except Johnson.
Why was he still alive but not the other bunch of marines? Did he just escape or was he immune to them?
Doubtable. Interesting idea though.

In the books, he has a rare genetical disorder that deters the flood from infecting him. It's like OFF bugspray for flood. It prevents him from being a suitable host. The combat forms still try to kill him.

"Were it so easy?"

Still waiting for the day to see Ling Ling's head.

The reason Johnson is immune is because his nervouse sytem was screwed up by a plasmetic blast. I think that flood attack the nervouse sytem first. That's how they take control.

Yes, you are right, even though it goes against everything we just said and what the books say. [/sarcasm]

So now all we have to do is expose every human being to a high amount of radiation from plasma grenades!

Two problems with this:

1) MC hid the information from ONI, to spare Johnson's life.

2) I think this information is one of those things from the books that might be too obscure to bring up in the games. I don't think we'll hear another peep about it.
