I was speaking of *medical* danger.I worked for years in a large hospital...the ER,to be exact.We'd regularly receive little old ladies who had fallen at their nursing home and broken their hip.The nurses,when sending these patients up to the orthopedic floor,would sometimes say "she won't leave here alive".The reason for that isn't the fracture itself...it's pneumonia,a huge risk for any elderly person who's bedridden even for a short time.
It’s the germs. Hospitals are not clean.
