This is only the tip of the ice-berg..........I see cronyism and nepotism at nearly every turn.....and that ice-berg is huge, real huge.
What is the outlook (prognosis) if I have pneumonia?
If you are well enough to be looked after at home, your outlook is very good. Fewer than 1 person in 100 will die as a result of pneumonia. Those who die tend to be older people, or those who also have other health problems.
If you need to be looked after in hospital, the outlook is not quite as good. 1 person in 10-20 may die because of their pneumonia. Again, these will usually be people who were unwell before they had pneumonia, or the elderly.
If the pneumonia is very severe, or caused by an aggressive type of germ (bacterium), such as legionella, you may need to be moved to an intensive care unit in the hospital. In these cases the outlook is much worse. Unfortunately, as many as half of these people may die.
