  5. I'm really worried about my dad who's 71. He's been in the hospital for 8 days due to some respiratory problems and was found to have a lower respiratory tract infection. He's conscious but has needed ventilator support for the past 4 days. Could you please let me know if the treatment he's receiving sounds right? And how long do you think it might take for him to recover?
