Sure you do, but you can spell "you" can't ya?

Well, this wouldn't be a very good technical idea. My characters have enough to worry about, and probably don't have the time or patience to see a pharmacist (something that obviously doesn't exist in the game's time period) and get vaccinated all the time.

Also remember, many diseases were unidentifiable due to the lack of medical knowledge at the time. Cures were often nothing more than Pagan rituals.

This idea isnt that new.

Under the point "Miscellaneous" in the Development section you can read:
There will be weather effects, that can also generate diseases (e.g. hot weather, cold,...)
However it appears to be under a new check.

The thing is that certain people would think it cool to go out and get a new disease everyday and stand round town so that everyone gets it. Then they'd either be killed by stupid people (not realising the disease would most likely spread from a corpse) or the town would be held quarantine in the prison.

On the other hand, people would everyonce in a while buy potions from druids again (since it's hard to find buyers these days).
