Man I'm sorry to hear that. Nosocomial infection is more common than people think, and it seems like it might be the result of this overflow you mentioned. Moving patients around, especially when understaffed/undersupplied, increases their risk of exposure to hospital illnesses.
I wish you and your father all the best and a quick recovery.
