Please stop worrying about this, neither you nor your sister could have infected your neighbor from the distances and limited exposures you are talking about.

The fact that he was very old and so frail that he was bedridden undoubtedly meant he was in very failing health already. The most common reason for death in this case usually whatever disease(s) he might have had, pneumonia from lying in bed (fluid accumulates in the lungs and the body is too weak to fight) or failure of his heart.

@sueinmn ,

I am feeling better now and I start to think more logically. It is true that I could not have infected him from that distance, and I didn't even go to his house where I would infect him.

Thank you very much for listening to me and responding so kindly. I wish you well!!
