Pg. 77 runners companion:

Infected with the Regeneration power may only accept deltaware implants.

Pg. 20 Augmentation:

Off the rack, basic bioware is considered
delta grade for purposes of interacting with a type O body
(i.e., reduce Essence Costs by half, though nuyen prices remain the
same).

Am I assuming incorrectly that this is a bp expensive way to start an infected character (with the regeneration ability) with
Bioware at least?

And if I am, am I incorrect in thinking that installing a chemical gland in this character that produces metahuman blood could save some hassle?

I know I am the worst kind of munchin for thinking this, but, just throwing it out there (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
