Is the First Responder's treatment optional, and how many cubes does she remove?

The ability says 'may', so it is optional, but if she responds she does a normal Treat Disease: one cube, or all cubes of a cured disease. It can't remove Superbug cubes, and a Resistant to Treatment strain stops her single action from removing a Virulent Strain cube, though she can still travel there. She can use it together with Emergency Response to treat twice.
