Dr. Janos Kovacs was a doctor from Hungary working with the Red Cross in Argentina. A few years prior, he and Dariela Marzan had worked together in a refugee camp in Egypt.

When on assignment in Argentina, he was attacked by an African Elephant and presumably bitten. He became trapped underneath his vehicle. The Ghost Gene activated, mutating him and stripping him of his sentience. He turned into a monstrous being, chewing off his own arm to free himself and from then on only targeting and killing humans.

After killing Dr. Mark Vickers and Dariela's entire Army Ranger team, he was captured by the Zoo team. Mitch attempted to study him, but after escaping once and being recaptured, Dariela's hatred of the former doctor pushed her to kill him to avenge her squad.
