Abstract

In industrialized and developing nations, the burden of acute respiratory tract infections is equal. Acute start of respiratory system symptoms as coughing, wheezing, rhinorrhea, dyspnea, and tachypnea are considered to be signs of an acute respiratory tract infection. ARI stands for clinically evident respiratory tract inflammation from the nasal passages to the alveoli. Infections of the upper respiratory system and lower respiratory systems are separated. In contrast to developing nations, wealthy nations have a lower incidence of LRTI. Pneumonia, bronchiolitis, bronchitis, laryngitis, and epiglottitis are among the LRTI-related illnesses.
