The Infected (sometimes known as Boils) are ex-Hyperion workers who have fallen victim to an affliction known as space hurps. The workers have since degenerated into a group of psychotic cannibals roaming the Veins of Helios in search of human flesh to consume. Aside from their atavistic tendencies, they are also notable for their remnants of Hyperion uniforms and the enormous boils infesting their skin.

Trivia
Disturbingly enough, the Boils share many of their traits with the Pandoran bandit tribe known as the Rats, indicating that Hyperion either accidentally spread the space hurps plague to Pandora when moving in or that the Rats are escaped boils from the slag testing labs.
