Happy to hear role of immunisation and strategies to cover 20 - 30 percent of children not completing doses as put forward by @brucekirenga. @VMusiime calls for multisectoral collaboration and Advocacy plans to fast track introduction of PCV-23. @DianaAtwine

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

Penta - Child Health Research
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
