Children, who weren't fully vaccinated, were exposed to cooking smoke, household members with respiratory infections, had diarrhea, or were girls all had a much higher risk. This suggests that getting kids fully vaccinated and reducing indoor air pollution are key ways to bring down pneumonia rates.
