The cold winter weather and the big temperature difference between indoor and outdoor make it a high season for respiratory infections, especially lower respiratory tract infections. The incidence of pneumonia is higher during the cold winter and spring seasons. According to statistics from domestic institutions, children with pneumonia account for 24% to 56% of the total number of children hospitalized, and it is worth being alert to the fact that the incidence is higher in infants and children, so it is necessary to prevent pediatric pneumonia in winter.
