Look, it's clear you've never been involved in handling this level of information. The combat readiness if an aircraft carrier is classified information. The combat readiness of your 10 man squad is not. Letting people know one person is sick isn't a big deal (usually). Letting people know a strategic asset like an aircraft carrier is about to be non-mission capable due to illness is a big deal, was always a big deal, and will always be a big deal.
