The Pneumococcal Disease Info skill has been created as an educational resource to learn about pneumococcal disease. When an Alexa device is available, Alexa can be asked to give a brief explanation of pneumococcal disease and its risk for those ages 65 years and older and for adults with certain chronic conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or COPD (Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease).
Merck Sharp & Dohme Corp., a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., is offering you this educational resource. The information is intended for health education in the United States. It is a clinical skill not intended for children.
