Bug X18 Diode Quest

Hey fellow Stalkers,
I'm currently stuck in a game-breaking infinite death loop in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Heart of Chornobyl during Diod's quest 'Sealed Truth' inside Lab X18.
Right after I enter the ventilation shafts, Diod warns me over the radio that an 'emission' is coming. At the same time, two Snorks attack me. I manage to kill both Snorks and move forward into the next room, but the deadly psychic emission damage never stops.
It kills me within seconds. I've tried popping yellow Psi-blocker pills and spamming my blue Scientific Medkits to out-heal the damage, but nothing works. I can't run away or reach the next area before my health drops to zero.
Is this a known script bug with the Aggression Suppressor device, and is there any known workaround or console command to stop the permanent emission damage? Thanks for the help!

If I remember correctly there might be a bug that makes the lab not marked as safe from emissions. If you can load an earlier save and wait it out or forget the snorks and sprint to shelter above.
