Some responses from customer support to rules questions - the answer to #1 is somewhat newsworthy but #5 doesn't jive with this bit of text from the rules:
As noted above, a leader may not be activated or placed on
overwatch until fully healed to his highest row of values.

1. Presence should read: Treat your Mental stat as if it were a"-." You may not be targeted by Mental attacks. However, when making a mental test for Awakening, use your current mental value on your character sheet.
2. Supernatural Strength applies to all attacks.
3. Yes.
4. Yes.
5. A Leader may not be activated, and thus, even if given a syringe, can not take an action to use them. The syringe must be administered by another character.
6. There is not reason why a Leader cannot continue to be healed by Syringes, however, even once fully healed, a Leader an only be healed by syringes, and may never be healed by an ability or piece of hardware, such as First Aid Kit.
I hope this helps!
