True, but the great sage pretender (sitting in high friendly dominion) in the fort got diseased, while *none* of the burning ones got diseased. Could be a fluke of course, but I seriously doubt there is a MR test involved.

As far as I know only the following factors affect the chance to get diseased:

1) Luck/Misfortune and Death scale in the province
2) How high D magic the character has
3) Does the character have regeneration or not
4) The randomly generated number compared to how virulent (this could be just a feeling though, as I have no hard numbers to prove that) the disease is (C'tis Miasma seems (at least to me!) to be a very good way to get diseased, while Rain of Toads has much smaller chance; then there are some characters, items and sites which spread diseases too, and some feel like being more virulent than others)
