What is another word for primary atypical pneumonia?
Pronunciation: [pɹˈa͡ɪməɹi e͡ɪtˈɪpɪkə͡l njuːmˈə͡ʊni͡ə] (IPA) 
Primary Atypical Pneumonia, also known as PAP, is a specific type of lung infection that is caused by the bacterium Mycoplasma pneumoniae. It can cause a range of symptoms, including cough, fever, fatigue, and shortness of breath. The term "atypical" refers to the fact that the bacteria that cause this type of pneumonia are different from those that cause other types of pneumonia. Synonyms for PAP include walking pneumonia, community-acquired pneumonia, and mycoplasma pneumonia. These terms are often used interchangeably to refer to the same condition, although the latter more specifically refers to the bacteria responsible for causing the infection.
