Battling to breath.: If you are 72 and "battling to breathe" you need to see a doctor in person, I suggest going to the emergency room.

Pneumonia COVID: In general COVID lung trouble is on both sides and towards middle but u need a finger O2. Check with local team. Now would be good. And follow local guidelines.

See below: Covid-19: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html Contact your doctor/local hospital, by phone for evaluation and testing in your area. Wear a mask, stay away from others, practice hand hygiene. If you develop breathing difficulty, go to the nearest hospital, immediately. Get Covid vaccine. Wish you good health.
