Pneumonia remains one of the leading causes of illness and hospitalization worldwide, yet with early detection and proper treatment, most cases are preventable and treatable.

Common symptoms include:
- Shortness of breath
- Fever or chills
- Fatigue and weakness
- Chest pain or cough

This World Pneumonia Day, take time to protect your health by staying up to date on your vaccines, practicing good hand hygiene, avoiding smoking and exposure to pollutants, and seeking medical care as soon as possible if symptoms occur.

Happy Veterans Day! Today and every day, we honor the brave men and women who have served our country. Your courage, dedication, and sacrifice inspire us all.

If you are a veteran, we invite you to comment with a photo of yourself in uniform and your rank so we can recognize and thank you for your service!
