...no.

The determining factor in how long it takes to cure a disease should be severity; which is unrelated to what letter the name of said disease starts with.

if you want to provide a specific scale on how long it takes, use a handful of diseases of varying severity/lethality to establish a loose scale

Example:

Common cold: 30 minutes

Influenza: 1 hours

Bacterial pneumonia: 3 hours

Viral pneumonia: 5 hours

Essentially, how long a disease takes to cure should be based on a combination of both severity, and how long the disease would take to run its course without additional treatment.
