For patients requiring hospitalization for pneumonia, the mortality rate is 10% and 25% link. If pneumonia develops in patients admitted to the hospital for other diseases, death rates are higher. They range from 50% to 70% and higher in men than in women. ? Kids really young. About 20% of the unsuccessful and early childhood mortality deaths are due to pneumonia.Young children who develop pneumonia are at risk for the development of lung problems adulthood. ? Patient in the vicinity of their immune systems. Pneumonia is particularly serious in people with compromised immune systems, particularly AIDS patients in whom pneumonia causes about half of all deaths. ? Patients with serious illnesses. The disease is much too dangerous for people with diabetes, liver cirrhosis, sickle cell anemia, multiple myeloma, and in those who had separated their mortal spleen.
