It's open to interpretation.  Here is the text in question:"Your touch inflicts disease. Make a melee spell Attack against a creature within your reach. On a hit, you afflict the creature with a disease of your choice from any of the ones described below. At the end of each of the target's turns, it must make a Constitution saving throw. After failing three of these saving throws, the disease's effects last for the Duration, and the creature stops making these saves. After succeeding on three of these saving throws, the creature recovers from the disease, and the spell ends."One rational interpretation is that the disease's effects only begin after failing three saving throws.  You have the disease on a hit, but you don't have the diseases effects until after you fail three saving throws. You can certainly emphasize other aspects of this text to arrive at a different interpretation, but that doesn't do much to support your claim it's not open to interpretation. It is.</blockquote>
