A hospital is probably the worst place to go if you are suffering from a respiratory illness. All the antibiotic resistant bacteria and pneumonia strains just lurking about looking for old patients to kill.

Hopefully he’ll come out of there alive.

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

If you want to feel old, on Feb 11, Burt will turn 77.

Same age as my grandpa when he died. And my grandpa always seemed OLD.

That may be still be true in Zimbabwe or Cuba, but modern hospitals practice infection control. If you're Burt's age and have a serious respiratory illness I'd say you'd have a much better chance going to the hospital.
