Respiratory tract infections (RTIs), which include conditions such as pneumonia, bronchitis, and influenza, are among the most common diseases worldwide, causing significant morbidity and mortality. At the 2nd Edition of the Infectious Diseases World Conference, experts focused on the latest advancements in diagnosing and treating RTIs, including rapid diagnostic tests and novel antiviral and antimicrobial therapies. Discussions also highlighted the growing challenge of antibiotic resistance in bacterial RTIs and the importance of vaccination in preventing respiratory infections, particularly in high-risk populations like the elderly and those with underlying health conditions. The conference emphasized the need for global strategies to improve access to care and reduce the burden of respiratory infections worldwide.
