What Is Acute Respiratory Tract Infection?

The most fatal aspect of acute respiratory tract infection is that it can prevent you from breathing. Due to this, it can prevent adequate oxygen supply to the body and result in death. Children, older adults and people suffering from immune system disorders are particularly at risk of this health issue. This disease typically begins in the sinuses and the rest of the upper respiratory system and then spread to y vocal chords and the lower respiratory system. It eventually reaches your lungs and can become critical if not treated.
