But this "cause and effect" thing itself is an
effect of human understanding of interactions between lifeforms which "
free will" is only limited to their abilities.

It would still effect free will by taking away the out come of death.
Illness as a lifeform itself can not be effected by mind-speaking words that we learned in some kind of religion.
But it may be effected by the power human body potentially holds wich is very tightly connected with psyche {selfconscious} of the disease-carrier. Or by any other interference in the disease (be it environment, climate, motion, etc.)
