It's something like this.

Here's a start in searching in strings:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
   std::string str[] = { "16 / 07 / 2016        John              NewYork          Fever            Steve         30",
                         "16 / 07 / 2016        Michael           NewYork          Food Poisoning   Mike          40",
                         "16 / 07 / 2016        Michelle          Washington       Flu              Steve         50",
                         "16 / 07 / 2016        Jack              NewYork          Fever            Mike          30",
                         "16 / 07 / 2016        Jackky            California       Fever            Steve         70",
                         "16 / 07 / 2016        Malaysia          California       Fever            Mike          50" };

   std::cout << "Enter your search string: ";
   std::string search;
   std::getline(std::cin, search);

   for (int i = 0; i < 6; i++)
   {
      std::string::size_type found = str[i].find(search);
 
      if (found != std::string::npos)
      {
         std::cout << "first '" << search << "' found at: " << found
            <<  " in string[" << i << "]\n";
      }
   }
}

Enter your search string: ever
first 'ever' found at: 58 in string[0]
first 'ever' found at: 58 in string[3]
first 'ever' found at: 58 in string[4]
first 'ever' found at: 58 in string[5]
