Pneumonia is an acute infection in the lung tissue that can be caused by microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites.

In Indonesia, the pneumonia control program is prioritized for toddlers, as they contribute significantly to the morbidity and mortality rates of toddlers.

"It is hoped that with the detection of cases and treatment of pneumonia that meet standards, the morbidity and mortality rates of toddlers due to pneumonia can be reduced," said the Ministry of Health in the Indonesian Health Profile 2024.

The coverage of pneumonia case detection in toddlers in Indonesia reached 52.7% in 2024, an increase compared to the previous year, and became the highest record since 2020.

This detection coverage indicates the percentage of pneumonia cases successfully identified, compared to the total estimated number of cases.

In 2024, the highest coverage for toddler pneumonia detection was in DI Yogyakarta Province (149.2%), South Papua (111.8%), and DKI Jakarta (108.6%).

This coverage rate exceeding 100% occurred because the number of detected cases was higher than the total estimated pneumonia cases in those regions.

Meanwhile, only 2 provinces did not report similar case findings in 2024, namely Central Papua and Highland Papua.
