I like the "phase in approach"
You could tone down the diseases to be annoying but not destructive, saving the really awful stuff for traitors.
Slowly phase in better diseases as the doctors become more competent. (e.g like when surgery for bullets was introduced, we didn't have stapleguns and zipguns making the problem worse yet)
Eventually phase in pathology as a way to capture live diseases and make vaccinations that can be smoked/injected/consumed by everyone. Load a fire extinguisher full of vaccine and you now have a disease fighting approach.
