Why is it that the line of treatment for a genetic disease is different from infectious diseases?

Answers (1)

An infectious disease happens because of some pathogen. The line of treatment in such condition is focused on eliminating the causative pathogen from the body. However, a genetic disease happens because of some anomaly in the genotype.

No antibiotic has an effect on genotype anomaly. Hence, the line of treatment for a genetic disease is entirely different from infectious disease.
