I've had "walking pneumonia" before... they didn't quarantine me!

Sounds like someone in gubmint is overreacting just a bit. (what a surprise!)

I was under the impression that pnuemonia is infection in one lung and double pnuemonia is infection in both lungs while walking pnuemonia is infection that goes from first one lung and then the other.

I had pnuemonia in one lung and it really run me down physically. I continued to work with a low grade fever but when the coughing spells hit, it felt as if I would cough up my boots. It took a booster shot, horse pills, elixers and inhalers to knock it out but it was tough to get rid of.
