Recently, many places across the country have entered the season of high incidence of respiratory infections, especially Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and the number of infected people has increased significantly. How should we understand and deal with it?I've sorted out this guide to Mycoplasma pneumoniae, hoping to help the little dinosaurs

Mycoplasma are similar to bacteria and also have a cellular structure but no cell wall. It is generally smaller than bacteria, about 01~0.3 microns, while the smallest known bacteria are 02 microns long. However, mycoplasma is actually less pathogenic, so there is no need to be overly nervous about mycoplasma.
What are the manifestations of mycoplasma infection?
Mycoplasma pneumoniae is generally transmitted from person to person through respiratory droplets, and the incubation period after exposure to Mycoplasma pneumoniae is about 23 days. Many mycoplasma infections are asymptomatic and similar to asymptomatic infections of the coronavirusThere are also some who only have symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection, that is, cold, such as sore throat and headache. However, there are some serious manifestations that may occur, such as severe pneumonia, encephalitis, myelitis, etc.
