While most people know pneumonia is a severe disease, few realize it is causing more harm than COVID-19 or influenza this year.
Pneumonia, an infection of the lungs, needlessly affects millions of people each year.
Globally, pneumonia killed more than 740,000 young children in 2019.
This is greater than fatalities from any infectious disease, such as HIV infection, malaria, or tuberculosis.
Unfortunately, this trend is continuing in 2022.

In the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) mpox vaccination analysis published today, all eligible persons are recommended to complete the two-dose JYNNEOS® vaccination series to optimize protection from infection.
JYNNEOS is a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved vaccine for the prevention of mpox and smallpox.
