What is the purpose of harmful bacteria?

There isn't really a "purpose" for harmful bacteria, or anything else, in the scientific sense (perhaps what you really meant to ask was "Why did God/the gods create harmful bacteria?" but then you should have put it in the Religion category). Some bacteria are "harmful" because that helps them spread and reproduce (bacteria that happened to cause coughing or sneezing spread more effectively, and so passed that trait on to their descendants). Some bacteria are harmful as a defense against other kinds of bacteria; a species that can live in a highly toxic environment has at least some incentive to MAKE the environment highly toxic so that they don't have to compete with other species. And some bacteria are harmful more or less "by accident"; they don't derive any real benefit from being harmful, but there's no advantage to them in NOT being harmful either, so there's no evolutionary pressure on them to become either more or less harmful.
