Is a walking pneumonia the same as Atypical Pneumonia?

Yes, walking pneumonia is often considered a type of atypical pneumonia. It is typically caused by specific bacteria, such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae, and is characterized by milder symptoms that allow individuals to continue with their daily activities. Atypical pneumonia, in general, refers to pneumonia caused by organisms other than the common bacteria that cause typical pneumonia, including various bacteria and viruses. Therefore, while all walking pneumonia is atypical, not all atypical pneumonia is classified as walking pneumonia.
