"What's the use of reporting now if you can't find the cause? It'll just cause panic. When that happens, who will take responsibility?"
"So we just ignore it? Don't you think it's strange? How can there suddenly be so many patients with the same symptoms overnight? It must be infectious. If we don't report it as soon as possible, it will be too late when something big happens!"
"Whether it's infectious is just your speculation. If it was as you say, then their family members should have been infected first, but the patients now don't have any direct connection."
The argument grew fiercer, and all the doctors in the office were arguing, but no one could convince the others.
"How do you know there's no connection? Maybe they visited the same place or consumed food from the same source. And why is it that only our area is affected, and not other regions? I think we must report it."
