grammaticality - Inversion in "Only when the virus introduces its nucleic acid into a cell does disease occur"

Given this sentence,




Disease occurs only when the virus introduces its nucleic acid into a cell.





Is the following inversion grammatical?




→ Only when the virus introduces its nucleic acid into a cell does disease occur.




Especially the "does disease occur" part.



I think that "occurs disease " is right. Can you explain a rule about this kind of sentence?
