I'm sitting in a hospital in Germany recovering from a "septic pneumonia", so this really helps

Speedy recovery my friend!

I'd never heard of 'Septic pneumonia' so I looked it up ...

Septic pneumonia is a life-threatening condition that occurs when pneumonia, a lung infection, triggers a severe body response called sepsis

Google

Still, always remember @YnotFish, it's nothing that a good dose of Methylene blue wouldn't cure.

Update:
the guys and gals in intensive care were brilliant, but i guess thats what you get with one nurse to max 3 patients.
the "normal ward", however was total chaos.
the german government had this brain wave a few years ago of making a ton of cash by selling off all of their hospitals to private "for profit" companies. its been downhill ever since.
anyway, after i had explained to the staff what my medication plan was supposed to be and got it approved by the one visit per day doctor, somebody managed to infect me with covid.
not cool. pneumonia + covid + asthma = a very unhappy chappy.
we got quarantined. then my neighbour started getting servere diarrhea. turns out he had been infected with Clostridium. so now double isolation.
got out yesterday, althoughi kept getting 39+°C fever spikes and the asthma was killing me. but i was being discharged anyeay, because "the pneumonia bacteria are handled, the rest you can sort out on your own at home!"
Good job Mrs is a trained nurse (old school) so i am now finally getting better

Great you got your eviction notice and now home again.

I know all to well about Nurses. My paternal Grandmother was Matron at the Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother Hospital, Ramsgate and she ruled with a rod of iron on the wards and at home. Her sister Kathryn, was the same. She was a Senior Sister at Lewisham Hospital. Both of them where Welsh and very much old school, with very old fashioned values.

They use to frighten me as a small boy ...I always very well behaved when visiting.

Thank goodness you've got a good wife that can look after you!
Get well very soon!
