Only the Treat Disease action. Cube removal by the Containment Specialist or by Field Operative sampling does not count, and per the rulebook neither do Remote Treatment or Rapid Vaccine Deployment. The Mobile Hospital event does count. The one exception is removing the last Virulent Strain cube from the city, because then nothing is left to treat.
