Yes, you can cut them to take over, but they will eventually succumb to the same disease. Once plant diseases have established in areas heavily populated with humans they are very difficult to rid.
Your extension service is probably well aware of the issue. They will give you means by which to control the illness, but if this is widespread, as it sounds, then you won’t get rid of it.
