August 21, 2007. A new rule from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is set to take effect that establishes procedures for employers to follow when they receive âno-matchâ letters from the Social Security Administration (SSA).
Atypical organisms such as Mycoplasma pneumoniae, Chlamydia pneumoniae, and Legionella pneumophila are implicated in up to 40 percent of cases of community-acquired pneumonia. Antibiotic treatment is empiric and includes coverage for both typical and atypical organisms.
Atypical pneumonia is a type of pneumonia that is not caused by the traditional pathogens of âtypicalâ pneumonia. The pathogens responsible for atypical pneumonia are Chlamydophila pneumoniae, Mycoplasma pneumonia, Legionella pneumophila, Moraxella catarrhalis, syncytial virus, and influenza A virus.
