Is it a mod or a map? If it's a mod then you could probably program it in.
If not then I'm not useful here.

What do you mean by "static"? If you want it to idle in place and not attack nearby scientists, you could set the Prisoner (16) flag.

What if he wants the zombie to attack the scientists later though?

That's the problem though. We don't know exactly what Combined wants because he hasn't described that yet. Just wait for him to elaborate.

Is there way After some time, to uncheck the prisoner flag of a zombie?

The prisoner flag can not be removed after a while. You should try to have the zombie execute a scripted sequence with an idle-animation. Once it is triggered, the sequence will stop and the Zombie will behave normal.
Or you build a full transparent box around it as a func_door and remove it when the zombie should start attacking.

Or instead of a func_door, an invisible (for example using
{invisible texture and Render Mode set to Solid) func_wall_toggle can work to keep the zombie and scientist from "seeing" each other until it's triggered.

Programming a relationship changer can work too but that requires it to be a mod and that you can program it in. Just giving out a thought.

If it's just to stop them killing the scientist until the player gets there, the easiest ways would be either using a monstermaker to only spawn either the zombie or the scientist once the player reaches a certain point or, as described above, a func_wall_toggle that prevents them from seeing each other until the player arrives.

What does a func_wall_toggle?

Both I and Archie linked to the Entity Guide page for the entity, but basically it's a brush entity that toggles between a solid visible state and a non-solid invisible state.
Essentially triggering it makes it disappear from the game, and triggering it again makes it re-appear.

func_wall_toggle will alternate between two states when triggered:
I also recommend experimenting with these entities on your own. Testing, trying and failing are the best ways to learn. 🙂
- Solid and visible
- Non-solid and invisible
