Do enemies stop striking me once I have a Chestburster?

The rulebook states enemies no longer strike you, and the designer clarified Hazard-forced Strikes still apply.

Yes. While a Chestburster is in your deck or discard pile, enemies no longer strike you, so their Strikes are skipped. Strikes forced by Hazards and Events (such as Self-Destruct) still happen to you.
