Primary Outcome Measures:

Clinical Response [ Time Frame: 7 - 14 days following end of antibiotic treatment ]
Clinical Response: Categorical (Cured, Failed or Indeterminate)
- Failure is at least one of the following: Persistence or progression of signs and symptoms of pneumonia that still require antibiotic therapy; Termination of study med due to "lack of efficacy"; Death on or after Day 3 attributable to primary infection
- Cure: Signs and symptoms of pneumonia improved to the point that no further antibiotics for pneumonia were required, and baseline radiographic findings improved or did not progress.
- Indeterminate: Inability to determine outcome
