I suspected Fidelacchius will be able to cure the nemfection since it was explained how it works (but it could be that it can't work against Nemesis, but killing the hunger in a white vampire. Specially a certain baby one). And about the detection...Michael detected Thomas as a vampire without problems, it seems that few things escape a KotC. So perhaps yes, perhaps they could detect it. Which would be very helpful. Also, I hope the KotC are immune to Nemesis, just because.

Telynn:
Have any of the knights ever mentioned anything to do with the infections and Nemesis?  I have to wonder if they are even aware of this going on.

No. They might not be. Could be it's either not their purview at all, or the angels managing them are the aware ones and just move the knights around as needed.

Dina:
Yes, when they are needed, they will be there.

Avernite:
I think it;s also a bit of 'do your own job' thinking.

The Angels know about the Outer Gates, but generally their job is to fight the Fallen (and other hurters of Free Will), while Winter and the Gatekeeper do the heavy lifting at the Gates.

Should be noted that when an Outsider-sponsored plot came close to succeeding the Angels and Fallen both stepped in and drew some blood, even if only Namshiel got a success. So that certainly suggests the Angels know some of it.
