In infectious pneumonia, bacteria, viruses, fungi or other organisms attack your lungs, leading to inflammation that makes it hard to breathe. Pneumonia can affect one or both lungs. Infection of both lungs is sometimes popularly referred to as double pneumonia. In many cases pneumonia follows a common cold or the flu, but it also can be associated with other illnesses or occur on its own. It's best to do everything you can to prevent pneumonia, but if you do get sick, recognizing and treating the disease early offers the best chance for a full recovery.

Joanne Hemstreet, 45, of Kingston, Massachusetts, died early Sunday at Kennedy Memorial Hospital in Cherry Hill, New Jersey, according to hospital officials, at least four days after coming down with flu-like symptoms. "We don't know the exact cause of her demise at this time, though ... this looks like a case of Pneumococcal pneumonia with a very severe complication," said Dr. David Condoluci, the hospital's chief of infectious diseases. The hospital admitted six women and one man staying at the same Hilton Hotel in Cherry Hill, about 10 miles southeast of Philadelphia.

Doctors in Bangladesh say it can help children to recover more quickly from the disease. Pneumonia kills more children than any other disease, almost all of them in developing countries. Writing in The Lancet, doctors from the Centre for Health and Population Research and Bloomberg School of Public Health at the Johns Hopkins University said giving children zinc could help save many lives. Pneumonia often affects children with low birth weight or those whose immune systems are weakened by malnutrition or other diseases. It kills two million children each year. The cost savings could be substantial Researchers As part of this study, 270 infants between the ages of two and 23 months were given either 20mg of zinc per day or a dummy pill in addition to conventional antibiotics. Faster recovery They found that children given zinc recovered an average of one day earlier than those who had been given dummy pills. They also left hospital one day earlier, on average.

The World Health Organization announced that the outbreak had been contained in the following July. However, experts predict the virus will continue to pose a threat - and warn that health authorities need to be ever vigilant for its return. When is Sars likely to pose the biggest threat? Scientists predict that the virus which causes Sars is likely to re-emerge in cold weather, in a similar fashion to the viruses which cause flu. However, they have stressed that the number of cases is unlikely to be on the scale of the 2002/03 outbreak. What are the dangers of Sars spreading? The best way to stop the spread of Sars is to isolate people with the virus and those thought to have been in contact with them. In this case, officials have quarantined 25 people who have been in contact with the patient.

Bolile copiilor nostri Pneumonia la copii Ce este pneumonia Pneumonia este un termen general care se refera la o infectie a plaminilor, putind fi cauzata de o varietate de microorganisme, inclusiv virusi, bacterii si paraziti. Adesea pneumonia incepe dupa o infectie a partii de sus a aparatului respirator (o infectie a nasului si a gitului). Cind se intimpla aceasta, simptomele pneumoniei incep dupa doua sau trei zile de raceala sau de durere a gitului. Simptome Unele tipuri de pneumonie cauzeaza simptome care dau explicatii importante despre microbul care cauzeaza boala. De exemplu, la copiii mai mari si la adolescenti pneumonia datorata micloplasmei (pneumonia ambulanta) este recunoscuta pentru cauzarea durerilor de git si de cap, pe linga simptomele obisnuite ale pneumoniei. La copiii mici, pneumonia datorata Chlamidiei poate cauza conjunctivita (inrosirea ochilor) cu doar o imbolnavire usoara si fara febra. In pneumonia datorata Pertussis (bacteria care provoaca tusea) copilul poate sa aiba reprize lungi de tuse, sa se invineteasca din cauza lipsei de aer sau sa scoata un sunet ca si cum ar tusi cind incearca sa respire. Care sint cauzele Pneumonia este o infectie a plaminilor care poate fi cauzata de diferite tipuri de microbi, respectiv bacterii, virusi, ciuperci si paraziti. Desi diferite tipuri de pneumonie tind sa afecteze copiii de diferite grupuri de virsta, pneumonia este de obicei cauzata de virusi. Citiva virusi care cauzeaza pneumonia: virusul gripal, virusul respirator, virusul paragripal, si adenovirusul.

Pneumococcal (pronounced new-mo-KOK-al) disease is an infection caused by bacteria. These bacteria can attack different parts of the body. When they invade the lungs, they cause the most common kind of bacterial pneumonia. When the same bacteria attack blood cells, they cause an infection called bacteremia (bak-ter-E-me-ah). And in the brain, they cause meningitis. Pnemococcal pneumonia is a serious illness that kills thousands of older people in the United States each year. Can Pneumonia Be Prevented? Yes. The pneumococcal vaccine is safe, it works, and one shot lasts most people a lifetime. People who get the vaccine are protected against almost all of the bacteria that cause pneumococcal pneumonia and other pneumococcal diseases as well. The shot, which is covered by Medicare, can be a lifesaver. Who Should Get the Vaccine?

Yes No VIEW RESULTS (CNN) Two epidemiological teams investigating pneumonia cases among U.S. military personnel in the Persian Gulf region have so far found nothing indicating they were caused by unusual factors, an Army doctor said Tuesday. There have been about 100 cases of pneumonia among military personnel in the area since March 1. Fifteen of those had to be treated with respirators, and two later died. As of Tuesday, no evidence existed that the pneumonia cases were caused by exposure to chemical or biological weapons, said Col. Robert DeFraites, chief of preventive medicine of the Army surgeon general's office. SARS and Legionnaires' disease also were ruled unlikely, DeFraites said. In addition, he said that medical teams have found no connection at all with Gulf War Syndrome, a variety of symptoms and illnesses that developed among troops involved in the Persian Gulf War in 1991.
