The child is admitted to intensive care because the doctor thinks he has a type of pneumonia whose name you do not recognize. The doctor reports that the hospital has seen a dozen pediatric cases of this pneumonia in the past week. The doctor swabs your son’s nose but says the results won’t be back for several days. In the meantime, they will give supportive therapy, including an inhaled spray, but no antibacterial drugs. The doctor feels sure the child will recover. 1. What kind of pneumonia is it? 2.
