A chest infection can be caused by bacteria, viruses or fungi. The pathogen would have to access the chest cavity (a puncture wound to the chest or drawing foreign substances into the lungs are the most common methods of entry).
There are many causes from different types of organisms. Some are bacterial such as strep or staph, and others are viral such as influenza. There are also, fungal infections such as cocci. The term chest infection is rather vague. There can be pneuomias or bronchitis or infections of the chest wall. The list of all the causes is quite long.
