Abstract

Mycoplasma pneumoniae is the main pathogen that causes pneumonia in hospitalized children. Existing treatment drugs have the disadvantage of insufficient resistance to varying degrees, and the discovery of drug-resistant strains has made it difficult to fully meet the needs of clinical intervention. The prevention of Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection remains unresolved, and the development and use of related vaccines have gradually become the focus of research. This article mainly provides an overview of the biology and vaccine research of Mycoplasma pneumoniae.
