"Infected"

David is seen in the cell with Karen while ensuring the children's safety from the walkers. It is mentioned by Karen that David is sick like she is. This causes the council to move both her and David over to a separate cell block as a precaution against them infecting any other prison survivors with the virus or dying and reanimating. Later on when Tyreese Williams is bringing flowers for his girlfriend Karen, he finds David burned alongside her in a small courtyard.

David's corpse is seen again as Rick Grimes discovers him and Karen's corpse after Tyreese mentioned them. Tyreese also mentioned him later when he dug up two graves for him and Karen.
