Need more info: What kind of infection, how was it diagnosed, extent of disease. The best person to answer this would be a pulmonologist or infectious diseases expert seeing you face to face. Good luck and best wishes.

It depends: On whether the individual has underlying diseases that might make the infection worse or affect mortality as well.
