Common cold differs from pneumonia in that
(a) pneumonia is a communicable disease whereas
the common cold is a nutritional deficiency
disease
(b) pneumonia can be prevented by a live attenuated
bacterial vaccine whereas the common cold has
no effective vaccine
(c) pneumonia is caused by a virus while the
common cold is caused by the bacterium
Haemophilus influenzae
(d) pneumonia pathogen infects alveoli whereas
the common cold affects nose and respiratory
passage but not the lungs.
