Izimpawu zakhe ezikhanyayo ngendlela yokukhwehlela, i-phlegm, i-hemoptysis nokukhathala, nazo zachazwa nguHippocrates, u-Avicenna noGalen. Kuze kube manje, lesi sifo esibi kakhulu, futhi ikakhulukazi izimpawu zayo, siholela kokwesaba umuntu, ngoba noma ubani ohlangabezane nomthengisi we-wand-pathogen engafanele angawuthola.

Usuku Lomhlaba Wonke Olubhekene Nesifo sofuba sisitshela sonke ukuba sicabange ngenkinga ekhona, ngoba ikusasa lethu lisesandleni sethu.
