Don't Ignore the Warning Signs of Lung Cancer

 Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths worldwide!

People who smoke have the greatest risk of lung cancer, though lung cancer can also occur in people who have never smoked.

The risk of lung cancer increases with the length of time and the number of cigarettes you've smoked.

In fact, 90% of lung cancers are because of tobacco usage!

If you quit smoking, even after smoking for many years, you can significantly reduce your chances of developing lung cancer.

Myths of Pneumonia

 

Don’t be deluded by misinformation circulating around pneumonia!

Most people respond to treatment and recover from pneumonia. 

Your recovery time will depend on the type of pneumonia you have, how severe it is, and your general health.

A younger person may feel back to normal in a week after treatment. Others may take longer to recover and may have lingering fatigue. If your symptoms are severe, your recovery may take several weeks.

Do You Know About Pneumonia?

 Pneumonia can be life-threatening to anyone, but particularly to infants, children and people over 65!

The germs that cause pneumonia are contagious. This means they can spread from person to person.
Both viral and bacterial pneumonia can spread to others through inhalation of airborne droplets from a sneeze or cough. You can also get these types of pneumonia by coming into contact with surfaces or objects that are contaminated with pneumonia-causing bacteria or viruses.
You can contract fungal pneumonia from the environment. However, it doesn’t spread from person to person.

Myths & Facts of Pulmonary Tuberculosis (TB)

 Being misinformed can cost you so always know your facts!

Although your body may harbor the bacteria that cause tuberculosis (TB), your immune system usually can prevent you from becoming sick.

• Latent TB: Latent TB, also called inactive TB or TB infection, isn't contagious. It can turn into active TB, so treatment is important for the person with latent TB and to help control the spread of TB. An estimated 2 billion people have latent TB.

• Active TB: This condition makes you sick and in most cases can spread to others. It can occur in the first few weeks after infection with the TB bacteria, or it might occur years later.
