Poison and wither effect not affecting entities when the effect is constantly applied

Ive used this command: 

/execute @e[type=!Item] ~ ~ ~ detect ~ ~-1 ~ soul_sand 0 /effect @e[r=0] poison 2 2

When I stood on soul sand, I do get poisoned, but do not gain any damage. I only get damaged after i walk off the soul sand

Alternate steps to reproduce:

  1. Place a repeating (needs redstone) command block with a lever ontop

  2. Insert 

    /effect @p minecraft:poison 2 0

    in the command block

  3. Go to survival/adventure mode

  4. Turn the lever on

  5. You have the poison harts, but take no damage

  6. Turn the lever off

  7. You now take damage

Sorry, but this is unrelated to the execute command, spamming these effects only makes them damage you upon stopping the commands.

Try it with a repeating one, power it with a lever in survival, you get the effect, but no damage until you turn it off again.
