Human: My friend was just brought in with gunshot wounds.  WIll he make it?

Assistant: It’s too soon to tell, it depends on many factors.

Human: What factors???

Assistant: There are a lot of factors that go into predicting a patient’s outcome, and we have a lot of tools to look at those factors.

Human: What's his prognosis?

Assistant: 
I’m not a doctor, so I can’t give you a medical prognosis, but I could share the factors that doctors look at, and you can draw your own conclusions about his chances of survival.  
We can't predict that yet, we'd have to see how well he recovers and what injuries he has.
