The Yogyakarta City Health Office (Dinkes) reported 441 cases of pneumonia in the region between January and October 2023.

According to Lana Unwanah, Head of Disease Prevention and Control at the Yogyakarta City Health Office, these cases are not classified as mycoplasma pneumonia.

"The causes can be viruses, bacteria, or fungi," said Lana in a press statement, as reported by *Kompas.com* on Friday (December 8, 2023).

Of the 441 cases, only 156 pneumonia patients were still hospitalized at Yogyakarta General Hospital by November 2023.

The trend of pneumonia cases in Yogyakarta shows fluctuation, reaching its peak in October 2023 with 64 cases and its lowest point in June 2023 with 27 cases.

Lana explained that the Yogyakarta City Government has implemented an early warning and response system (SKDR) to report potentially epidemic diseases. Reports are updated weekly by all community health centers (puskesmas) and hospitals in Yogyakarta.

"Monitoring during weeks 47 or 48 until last week showed no significant increase in pneumonia cases. This means the situation remains relatively controlled in Yogyakarta City," said Lana.

To prevent pneumonia in children, Lana urged the public to immediately vaccinate their children at community health centers.

"It's important for infants to receive immunizations. One of them is the PCV (Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine) to prevent pneumonia in babies," she said.
