Thousands of children are now suffering from pneumonia symptoms in China. However, doctors say it is not pneumonia. Fever and difficulty in breathing are the main symptoms of this disease. Thousands of children suffering from these problems are being admitted to hospitals.
The World Health Organization has expressed concern over the outbreak of a chronic disease with symptoms of pneumonia in China. It is said that it is worrying that especially children are affected by this disease. It is suggested to take immediate measures to prevent the spread of the disease. China has asked the Ministry of Health to give a report with full details regarding the disease. It advised to take precautions like isolating infected people, wearing masks and washing hands frequently.
Officials from China’s National Health Commission released details of the new disease last week. He said that the respiratory problem is spreading rapidly in the country. It was revealed that this problem is especially high in the northern parts of China. After the lifting of Covid restrictions, common infections such as influenza in children have increased.
Schools in northern China, where the problem is most prevalent, have been temporarily closed amid an outbreak of pneumonia-like symptoms among children. It was revealed that this action was taken to prevent further spread of this disease.
