Answer: Parasitism, where only an organism benifts while hurting the other, or Commensilism when treating genetic disorders.

Step-by-step explanation:

Diseases mostly hurt an organism, but in some cases they can be used to treat genetic disorders so Parasitism and Commensalism can be used depending on the question. But an infectious dose to a healthy host will cause illness or minor setbacks to the organism.
