A 90-year-old grandmother will be at a greater risk for ‘bacterial pneumonia’.

Pneumonia is a disease that effects the lungs of an individual there is fluid accumulation in both the lungs. Pneumonia is majorly caused by the bacteria Streptococcus pneumoniae.  

The symptoms involve coughing, irritability in the chest fever etc. It is caused in the elderly people more because they tend to have a lesser immunity than a normal adult individual.
