At the end of season 2 of Stardust Crusaders, the blood from Dio's corpse was
transfused back to Joseph Joestar. However, as seen before in the series, the
contact of Dio's blood with a corpse makes the corpse a Vampire. It was also
explicitly stated that Dio's body was still not "dead". Then why did this not
happen to Joseph?

Why did Joseph Joestar not become a vampire?


The Best Possible explanation, that I can think of is that Joseph was a Hamon
User, and Hamon is anti-Vampire, so it somehow protected him from turning to a
Vampire.

Well, Joseph, from the moment of his birth has been filled with Hamon; Hamon
is-well a vampire repellent. Think of vampirism as raw meat, and Hamon as a
fire. Raw meat is bad, but after being purified, the meat is now safe. It also
might be because of his Hamon infused blood that it wasn’t fully digested by
DIO and therefore was easily taken back.
