Acute Respiratory Infection (ARI)-mostly in the form of pneumonia-accounts for millions of deaths in babies and young children because these illnesses have no 'simple cure'. Children need antibiotics.
ARI symptoms are easily recognised, however, and if treatment is given quickly many children can be saved. In this story Andrew shows us how, when he is left in charge of his baby sister and she develops pneumonia. Fortunately, Andrew knows the signs, so he makes sure she gets antibiotics and lives.
