** This borders on YMMV territory.... But, it must be remembered that Diego only "activated" when [[spoiler: hit with the laser (or whatever that was) by the government.]] Perhaps activation takes some special catalyst that has not been revealed yet. This could be an example of ''The Walking Dead'' where everyone already has it, and it takes a certain chemical or reaction in order to start turn the infection on.
** It is possible that like a good bunch of zombie media, the kids had diffirent levels of resistence to the parasite, so whatever they had that stopped them from turning on the spot, wore off at different times, note that Deigo was complaining about feeling weird and itchy before he was hit with the laser thingy, so maybe he was on his last legs. my theory is that the plan was the kids were adopted out, and all of them had false records of a "medical condition" in which the "medicine" was only available from a certain south american "doctor". note that in dead rising 1 Isabela said she didn't know how long the prototype zombrex would actually work, one day the dose they take is too weak and bam that kid turns, then another and another all the way to nick, and some kids might not even have turned yet, but there was probably a special notice for anyone with a number tattoo on their neck to immediatly go get the Ramos vaccine once it was developed.

* Okay so we know from {{Dead Rising}} that Carlito sent 50(?) infected orphans up to the states to various cities (according to the map seen on his laptop in 1) to set off more zombie outbreaks there, presumably at a time of his own choosing. This suggests that he a.) knew that the parasites can remain dormant in infected persons for a long period of time if controlled by Zombrex or some other method (as seen in Frank and Katey, and other infected Zombrex users who have been infected for years) OR b.) assumed that the kids would just turn immediately after they got across the border and into their new homes, causing potentially 50 outbreaks across the USA. Putting aside ''how'' he could have ''possibly'' made one of the kids “immune” to a hormone-based parasite, and why he didn’t share that knowledge with Isabela, at least, AND how he legally got 50 kids into the states all at once without raising suspicion, why have those kids not turned by the events of 3? (Especially Diego, or was his just a case of his {{Convenient Terminal Illness}} kicking in at just the right time to allow our protagonist to escape?) My theory is that, 50 kids from South/Central America? In the age of anti-immigration fears in the US, as well as a deadly epidemic that is known to have started south of the border? Those kids didn’t make it farther than Los [[strike:Angeles]]Perdidos. They’re not about to get adopted, at any rate. That’s how Isabela knew they would have to hit Los Perdidos to find the Immune Orphan: ''all'' of them were in that city. Otherwise, was her plan to just start outbreaks in every city Carlito had ''planned'' to send a {{Tykebomb}} to, hoping she’d hit the right city eventually?
