∙ 14y agoThere are many types of pneumonia such as Bactiral Pneumonia, Viral Pneumonia and many more types. There are MANY types of pneumonia, take my word for it, I've had pneumonia before in my life ---- There are many names but really only a few basic types. The types of pneumonia are named either for the type of organism that causes the inflammation and infection of the lungs (bacterial, viral, fungal, parasites, or inhalation of foreign substances), the specific organism (e.g., pneumococcal pneumonia, Legionairre's pneumonia, CMV pneumonia), or the method of obtaining the pneumonia (e.g., aspiration pneumonia).
The types, like aspiration pneumonia and pneumonia caused by inhalation of foreign substances, will usually acquire bacterial infections along with the inflammation, so they and other bacterial pneumonia conditions are treated with antibiotics specific to the organism involved in causing the infection.
Viral pneumonia and aspiration pneumonia are treated with anti-viral medications and treatment for any secondary opportunistic bacterial infections with antibiotics.
Anti-fungal medications are given for the fungal pneumonias, and secondary bacterial infections can also accompany these types.
The rare parasitic pneumonia is usually treated with antibiotics. The most common cases of this are among the immunocompromised, like those with HIV/AIDS.
Other treatments for all of these and the pneumonia caused by smoke inhalation or other breathing of chemicals or foreign substances involve monitoring and keeping the oxygen levels in the blood from going too low from improper air exchange in the fluid filled lungs by administration of oxygen at levels above plain room air. Respiratory treatments (breathing treatments with aerosolized medications) may be given to help loosen secretions and aid expectoration. And symptomatic treatment for fever, cough, chest pains, and dehydration. In rare cases, respiratory failure may require use of a ventilator.

In addition to the bubonic plague, there are two other different diseases caused by the same organism, called the septicemic plague and the pneumonic plague. The bubonic plague is spread by rats and fleas; a person gets it by being bitten by an infected flea. The septicemic form is the same disease, except that it has spread into a person's blood stream, where it progresses more rapidly and is more likely to be lethal. If the plague gets into a person's lungs, then the form is the pneumonic plague, and it can be spread in the droplets in the air when that person coughs; another person can catch the pneumonic plague by breathing the air.
