A member asked:
Will running a ceiling fan cause pneumonia in my 11 month old daughter if she is battling a cold /flu? mainly just a good cough now.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Pneumonia is caused by germs not fans. However, any kid with flu can develop pneumonia as part of the illness.Just keep a good eye on things.
