CANCERCancer can leave people more vulnerable to serious, life- threatening diseases, like pneumococcal pneumonia, due to:

• A weakened immune system

• Post-operation complications 10

• Heightened exposure to bacteria11

• Radiation treatment or chemotherapy12

STEPS TO HELP PROTECT YOURSELF

Get an annual physical and

regular screenings

Talk to your doctor about the vaccination

options that are appropriate for you

Stay active and exercise

regularly

Maintain a healthy diet

KNOW YOUR RISK

If you’re age [50 or older] OR [65 or older], you may be at increased risk

for pneumococcal pneumonia. 1 If you also have chronic conditions, including

certain respiratory conditions, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer,

or a weakened immune system, your risk could be even greater. 2

ARE YOU AT RISK?

Pneumococcal diseases are a common cause of illness and death

worldwide5

Pneumonia, including pneumococcal pneumonia, is a leading 4

cause of death throughout the world, according to the WHO

Pneumonia tends to be more serious for older adults and

people with chronic health problems, or weak immune systems 6

WEAKENED IMMUNE SYSTEMPeople living with diseases that impair the immune system, such as HIV/AIDS, are particularly vulnerable to serious, life-threatening diseases, including pneumococcal pneumonia 1,2

Individuals age 50+ with HIV are at

4 to 6 times greater risk of contracting pneumococcal pneumonia than healthy adults 13

KAIP APSISAUGOTI?

Kasmet pasitikrinkite

sveikatą

Pasitarkite su savo gydytoju dėl jums labiausiai tinkamo skiepijimosi būdo

Būkite aktyvūs ir reguliariai sportuokite

Sveikai maitinkitės

SUSILPNĖJUSI IMUNINĖ SISTEMAŽmonės, gyvenantys su imuninei sistemai kenksmingą poveikį darančiomis ligomis, tokiomis kaip ŽIV/AIDS, yra ypač pažeidžiami rimtų, gyvybei pavojingų ligų, įskaitant ir

10

pneumokokinę pneumoniją.

Todėl 50 metų ir vyresniems ŽIV infekuotiems asmenims kyla 4-6 kartus didesnis pavojus susirgti pneumokokine pneumonija nei sveikiems.

ŠIRDIES IR KRAUJAGYSLIŲ LIGOS
