You surely did not infect him by breathing outdoors 12 feet away from his house. Has anyone said he died from a respiratory infection? If so he was far more likely to have caught it from someone who was inside his home in any case.

No, as far as I know he died due to aging, he was bedridden for about 1 month or so. Although, I told my mom to ask his son because I want to be sure.

Also, I read in a paper that aerosol transmission of respiratory viruses requires an extended time in a poorly ventilated space to happen.
