2. Choice B is the correct answer. Pneumococcal pneumonia presents usually in young, health individuals with a lobar pneumonia. Patients frequently will have chills and shakes. Tuberculosis presents with hemoptysis, night sweats, weight loss, and cavitary lesions in the upper lobes on chest x-ray. Pulmonary emboli typically will not have a lobar pneumonia with it.
