World Pneumonia Day

World Pneumonia Day - November 12 - Pneumonia kills two million children under age five - largest killer of kids in the world

[Anita Zaidi @AnitaZaidi]

Pneumonia is the # 1 infectious killer of children under 5 globally. Yet, 50% of kids under 5 aren’t fully protected with pneumonia-fighting vaccines.

Increased access to these platforms will save lives and ensure children can thrive. #WorldPneumoniaDay https://t.co/7iyVJx6GPt

At least one child dies every minute from pneumonia - a largely preventable and treatable disease - every day. We must step up and tackle this forgotten epidemic. #pneumonia #WorldPneumoniaDay2021 @savechildrenuk @UNICEF @Stop_Pneumonia

A child < 5 year dies of pneumonia every 30 second. Pneumococcal vaccination ( PCV) in children and adults will prevent pneumonia. #Fightpneumonia #WorldPneumoniaDay2021

2.5 million lives were lost to Pneumonia in 2019. Pneumonia is preventable: Ensure good nutrition, good immunity, good hand hygiene, no smoking, good quality indoor and outdoor air. You can get yourself vaccinated too. #WorldPneumoniaDay
