We're told of a child who was nearly drowned, but no children die - not sure what that other commenter is talking about.

One person says that a man who was on screen for a matter of seconds was convicted of raping a child, but it's almost a throwaway line and nothing more.

Indirectly, kind of? Symbiote eats the humans; symbiote lives in a human.

When the symbiote is outside his body, the human host is in a state that might be suggestive of a seizure for some people.

The closest thing to kidnapping is that some workers are taken by force to a different part of the complex and put in a room where they are killed.

SPOILERS!!
8:00 minutes in when a man is stumbling out of the spaceship he v* some black goo. You hear it when he’s turned around and then he turns to face the camera and some is still dripping out his mouth.
1:05 in after they bring in the creature to eat the tied up prisoner. Tatiana is in the car watching when it eats his head. She covers her mouth and then it shows a guard walking towards her in the car. Once the other doctor orders to “stop the cameras” she uncovers her mouth and v* up what looked like a chunk of something. Not too bad audio it sounded more like a cough. Look away after the line about the cameras and then look back when the car lights are shown.
1:32 to around 1:35 they escape the scene with that monster but then the main military dude running the operation (forgot his name) goes in to fight with the creature. He shoots it and it eats his hand. Then while he’s sitting on the floor the creature lunges at him so he sprays it with some bullets in a second it switches back to the main character man and Tatiana in the car. He v* up blood suddenly and then she pulls over.

As above, technically no, but the premise of the film is that the protagonist is mentally assessing a man who may or may not be sane. They have regular sessions in the holding cell where he is kept isolated.

Technically they're not in a hospital setting, but one character is in a room that's set up to be reminiscent of that. The patient is unconscious, strapped to monitors, and there is other medical equipment nearby.

A man says that the treatment he's receiving from others makes him want to kill himself, but the tone seems more like an exaggeration of his frustration rather than a genuine threat.

There is a short moment of white flashing lights when the creature moves to attack the human in the spacesuit. (They increase the brightness of the strip lighting overhead). It is a few seconds long and ends when they pull her out.

A boy is called "that" and referred to with it/its pronouns. He is physically disabled, and the person misgendering him is dehumanizing him because of his disability. A woman is also referred to with he/him pronouns occasionally.

The end is more bittersweet than sad. It might not be happy, but it is definitely not a sad one.
