    Acute illnesses such as chest infections do not usually have a bearing on medicals. That being said it will be visible on their medical record during application and it will be up for the medical team to decide. At the moment he will need to wait until the current deferral end before this can be reviewed. Please bear in mind being treated for a condition is more important than letting it get worse so you should always follow your doctors advice.
