Pneumonia remains the leading infectious cause of death worldwide, with children under 5, the elderly, and people with chronic illnesses at greatest risk, according to infectious disease specialist Dr. Dilek Leyla Mamçu. Symptoms include fever, cough, sputum, and chest pain, and the disease can progress severely in high-risk groups. Mamçu emphasized that annual flu and pneumococcal vaccines are the most effective protection against pneumonia. The comments underscore the importance of vaccination in reducing severe outcomes among vulnerable populations.
