Speaking at the #LSHSymposium25 Prof. Victor Musiime notes that while early lung damage from indoor smoke leads to lifelong respiratory illness, over 85% of Ugandan households still use harmful fuels exposing children to harmful indoor smoke. #MLIat10 #MyAirMyHealth

The PediCAP trial found that children recovering from severe #pneumonia could safely switch from injectable to oral antibiotics earlier, and come home from hospital sooner.
These new results were presented today at #ESCMIDGlobal #ECCMID2024. Congratulations to the PediCAP team!

- 4 days' total antibiotic treatment is generally enough
- shorter durations are as good as 8 days
*This means early discharge from hospital* (2/2) #ESCMIDGlobal2024

Victor Musiime on the results of the PediCAP trial (severe childhood CAP):
- Switching children to oral antibiotics when health improves is safe, working just as well as 5 days of injectable antibiotics
- Amoxicillin is affordable and readily available (1/2) #ESCMIDGlobal2024
