and basing my statement on articles that pneumonia in older or sick individuals is typically an ancillary disease - so just my opinion. For instance, patients with AIDS typically die of pneumonia. Because their immune systems are weakened, they can't fight off ancillary diseases like pneumonia. Same with stroke patients and bed-ridden individuals. They often succumb to it.
