What is pneumonia?*
Pneumonia is a serious infection that affects one or both lungs. Most cases (70% to 80%) are acquired in the community, not in a hospital or nursing home, and develop in people over age 60 or in people who have an underlying medical condition.
See Healthwise for additional information on pneumonia.
