  • Two million deaths a year

47. Why do they die?

  • No Treatment
  • Inappropriate treatment
  • Inadequate treatment

48. Infant Pneumonia

  • Simple Treatments!

49. Neonatal Infection

  • One million a year die

  • Impact
    • Early diagnosis (screening)
    • Lay health worker diagnosis
    • Follow response to antibiotics
    • Reduced antibiotic use
    • Early referral
    • Manage oxygentherapy
