Time trends in the burden of non-COVID-19 lower respiratory tract infections among children aged 0 to 14 years
The burden of LRTIs remains significant in low- and middle-income countries, as well as among neonates and females. While the burden of various pathogens is gradually declining, influenza warrants particular attention. Expanding vaccine coverage, improving sanitary conditions, and early interventions for high-risk children are crucial strategies to reduce LRTI burden.
