Dr. Fred Burke of OSF HealthCare shares top tips for preventing pneumonia

Left untreated, pneumonia can lead to sepsis or respiratory failure, leading to hospitalization, oxygen therapy, or even life support. Pneumonia can spread through respiratory droplets or contiminated surfaces. Washing your hands or sneezing into your elbow are essential to stop the spread. The pneumococcal vaccine is also an important tool that is recommended for people at higher risk—such as smokers, individuals with chronic illnesses like COPD, or those with weakened immune systems.
