To investigate the issue while avoiding public panic, I would start by contacting local health authorities and inquiring about current protocols for used needles and gloves disposal. I would also reach out to medical professionals in the area to find out what measures they take to prevent improper disposal of their waste. Additionally, I could gather up-to-date information on health risks associated with improper disposal of medical waste and speak with affected communities in person or over video call. This might help allay any fears before they turn into a full blown panic.

Acknowledge the concerns of the public and explain that proper safety procedures have already been put in place such as implementing a needle and glove-disposal system, educating medical personnel on proper disposal methods, establishing clean-up crews to safely remove any contaminated materials and installing safety equipment at affected sites. Additionally, providing updates on progress addressed so far helps ease worries. Furthermore, you can offer the assurance that any information collected in the investigation will be kept confidential. All of this should help avoid a public panic if there is indeed an issue related to improperly discarded needles or gloves.
