The Hashiras would likely show concern. Some, like Shinobu, would immediately start looking into possible medical solutions. Giyuu might be more reserved in his worry but would still keep a close eye on Tanjiro. The other demon slayers would also be affected. They look up to Tanjiro, so his sickness would lower the morale of the group. They would try to support each other while waiting for Tanjiro to recover.
The 'akaza sad story' might refer to the tragic backstory of Akaza from Demon Slayer. Akaza was once a human with a strong will. He had a family and a normal life, but due to various misfortunes and being turned into a demon against his will, he lost his humanity and was forced to do cruel things. He also had a lot of inner struggles as he still retained some of his human emotions deep down, which made his story a sad one.
