    Good watering practices and good air circulation around the plants is the best way to prevent bacterial diseases.

    Remove the diseased leaves and isolate the plant.

    Prune back to encourage new, fuller growth.

    Yes, this could be the cause.

    Here is an article that explains some of the reasons for loss of variegation.

    It would be hard to say for sure without a picture, but it sounds like it might be a fungus of some kind. It should clear up once the plant is in soil, but if you are worried, you can treat the plant with a fungicide.

    I'm not able to see how far away from the pot this plant vine is growing. It may be that it is lacking a bit of nutrients.
    The leaves I see look quite healthy and maybe just a little pruning can rejuvenate the plant.

    Here is a link to refresh you of the care.

    Philodendrons like to be slightly root bound, but you should be able to easily spilt a plant.
    You will need to dig up the root ball. You most likely need to cut the plant with a knife. Replant the plants as soon as possible and provide extra water in the first couple weeks of replanting.
    Here are a few links.
