During the American Civil War, pneumonia was a significant cause of death among soldiers, with estimates suggesting that around 50,000 soldiers died from pneumonia and other respiratory diseases. This number reflects the broader impact of disease on military personnel, as illness often claimed more lives than battlefield injuries. The lack of proper medical care and poor living conditions contributed to the spread of pneumonia among troops.
