I would write on the one where you can get references. Seems to me that you will be able to find references to support whatever position you take. I haven't checked, but I do know that right now the United States government has been very actively tracking medication errors. I don't know if they have been looking at latex allergies with patients, but they may have been studying it among healthcare workers. I don't know what has been news worthy items in healthcare in your country.

I'm in the process of writing an essay myself for a healthcare class, but it is on back injuries in healthcare workers and I am finding a lot of information on various U.S. states that are trying to pass laws mandating healthcare facilities to provide some kind of lifting assistance, either equipment or teams of people to do the lifting, for their healthcare workers.
