Monk vs Mummy Rot

[P=NP?]

mummy rot is listed as a curse and a disease. [Bestiary 1}. so would it affect a monk? the

monk's purity of body {core p. 59} states that a monk is immune to all disease even

supernatural ones. I ask because the paladin's divine health {core p. 61} reads almost the same

but specifically mentions "including mummy rot", while the monk's purity of body does not.

It should. It is simultaneously a curse and a disease, and one does not take precedence over the other. So immunity to disease should make you immune to that too.

A strict interpretation might be that the monk can still be cursed with it but wouldn’t suffer any of the negative effects. At which point it’s as if you don’t have it at all anyway.

[Derklord]

Mummy Rot is a disease. You are Immune to diseases. Therefore, you are immune to Mummy Rot.

There is even an FAQ for that, although for Paladin, but it's still appliable.

Immunity applies. I've only seen one time (that I can recall, anyway) when immunity to disease didn't apply to a disease, and it was specifically called out in the rules for that disease.
