Dream - The health condition in China has made various countries worried. This is because since mid-October 2023, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO), there has been an increase in cases of undiagnosed respiratory diseases, or known as 'mysterious pneumonia', in children in northern China.

On November 23, 2023, WHO held a teleconference with the health authorities of China from the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention and Beijing Children's Hospital. From the meeting facilitated by the National Health Commission and the National Administration of Disease Control and Prevention, it was revealed that there has been a significant increase in outpatient consultations and hospital admissions for children due to pneumonia, Mycoplasma pneumoniae since May, as well as RSV, adenovirus, and influenza viruses since October 2023.

There is also a queue of patients at the Chinese traditional medicine hospital and the central hospital. "Patients have to wait for 2 hours, and we are all in the emergency unit and there is no general outpatient clinic," said a staff member of Dalian Children's Hospital.

From the report of ProMED International Society for Infectious Disease, published on November 21, 2023, titled "Undiagnosed Pneumonia-China," the outbreak of pneumonia in China has affected children's hospitals in Beijing, Liaoning, and other places, overwhelming them with sick children.

The typical symptoms of this pneumonia are that the child patient will experience fever and there will be nodules or white bumps in the lungs. Then, most of the children affected by this pneumonia do not experience coughing symptoms.
