Pneumonia is the #1 infectious killer of children under age 5 worldwide.
99% of all childhood deaths from pneumonia occur in the developing world.
Pneumonia is solvable
Pneumonia is one of the most solvable problems in global health. We have the safe, effective and affordable tools necessary to help prevent children from contracting pneumonia and to treat those suffering with this illness.
We can win the fight
To advance progress, we must continue to scale up interventions that we know will save children’s lives, including continued access to vaccines, proper antibiotic treatment, improved sanitation, as well as the promotion of practices such as braestfeeding, frequent hand washing, care seeking, and the use of clean cookstoves to reduce indoor air pollution.

Together we can ensure that everyone works together to make pneumonia a priority. Join the Global Coalition against Child Pneumonia.
