Quoted from the Mayo Clinic Friday, July 1, lung infections such as that experienced by Tjahjo Kumolo occur when harmful microbes, such as bacteria or viruses, enter the lungs and cause damage. These bacteria and viruses usually spread through the air and work by defeating the immune system.

Such as infants, young children, the elderly aged 65 years and over, and people with health problems or a weakened immune system.
Signs and symptoms of pneumonia vary from mild to severe. It depends on several factors, such as the type of germ causing the infection, your age, and your overall health. Mild signs and symptoms are often similar to those of a cold or flu, but last longer. While the signs of severe symptoms include;
Chest pain when breathing or coughing Confusion or loss of consciousness (in adults aged 65 years and over) Coughing with phlegm Fatigue Fever, sweating and chills Body temperature lower than normal (in adults older than 65 years and people with compromised immune systems) weak) Nausea, vomiting or diarrhea Shortness of breathLaunching Healthline, lung infections that attack are generally bronchitis, pneumonia, and bronchiolitis. All three types are caused by viruses and bacteria that attack the lungs. Identification of the type of infection is important to determine treatment.
Not all lung infections can be prevented. However, the risk of its spread can be minimized by;
wash your hands regularly avoid touching your face or mouth avoid sharing utensils, food, or drinks with other people avoid being in crowded places that are easy to transmit the virus Don't smoke Have a flu vaccine every year to prevent influenza infectionKeep in mind, lung infections can be spread through coughing, sneezing, and contamination of objects. Clean lifestyle practices can help prevent the spread of pneumonia or the risk of contracting it.
