Caution: This germ spreads through water droplets from cough/sneezing. Try to cover up mouth/nose when coughing and wash hands frequently. If your children begin to show signs of respiratory infections be sure to tell their Pedi you had walking pneumonia. Most patients handle this infection well. Can cause temporary wheezing in the very young. http://www.webmd.com/lung/walking-pneumonia
