Summary
This study looks at whether it is safe to stop antibiotics early in people aged 65 and older who are in the hospital for a viral lung infection. Many older patients get antibiotics even when they have a virus, which can cause side effects and lead to antibiotic resistance. The researchers will compare how many days patients go without antibiotics and track side effects, deaths, and hospital stay length.
