Absorbing Replication would be ideally suited to fight the infection. You could absorb both the infected and what they throw at you, turning each consumed infected into more of you, multiplying exponentially as you hunt them down into extinction.

In essence, it would make you a one-man Alpha Infection, completely reversing the role and inexorably wiping them out.

Plus, if your power happens to include History Absorption, you could even used the retroactive knowledge gleaned during their individual absorption to recreate the person they used to be once it is all over, turning a nigh-hopeless apocalypse into a nigh-perfect happy ending.
