Why is treatment sometimes done earlier than the payment?
When a case is urgent and vital, hospitals often proceed with delivering medical care right away to save a life, even before the finalisation of admission procedures. Usually, when this happens, hospitals put the bill on our credit until the funds are transferred to their accounts. That’s why the chronology can sometimes be in disorder.

About infections
Malaria is a life-threatening disease caused by parasites that are transmitted to people through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. It is preventable and curable. Severe malaria typically occurs due to delayed treatment of uncomplicated malaria. This stage of the disease is defined by the evidence of vital organ dysfunction. Pneumonia - Pneumonia develops when the defensive mechanisms within the lung become overwhelmed by a pathogen which has been either inhaled or aspirated. It is associated with a high mortality rate and significant morbidity. Severe pneumonia is frequently a multisystem disease and patients will often present with multiple organ failure.

Background
Tobias is 13 old and he is an only child. Tobias likes playing handball, watching TV and watching football. He doesn't have a favorite team that he supports but he likes watching the local teams in his village play football. He would like to be a pilot and change the economic status of his family, but also to fly around with his parents to various destinations.
Medical history
Tobias was put on treatment and is now back to full health. He resumed school and is happy to help his parents around the house and also do his homework as he tries to catch up on the time he was away from school when he was ill.
Prognosis
Both malaria and pneumonia are treatable, but can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
