What is it about?
In this study, we developed an inhalable formulation of tea tree oil that has no possiblity to arise bacterial resistance for treatment of pneumonia. Direct pulmonary delivery of this novel formulation makes it more effective and higher bioavailable than generally adminstration routes (e.g., oral or injection) .

Perspectives
So, the novel tea tree oil formulation is a new weapon to resist the pneumonia.
