Summary about Whooping Cough in English

Now, whooping cough is particularly affecting children too young to be vaccinated, as well as adolescents and adults whose immunity has decreased. Deaths associated with whooping cough are rare but more common in babies.

In babies under 6 months of age, these symptoms should be closely watched. Even in toddlers, whooping cough needs special attention because this may interfere with their breathing.

Causes of Whooping Cough

Coughing, sneezing and sharing the breathing space can transmit this disease.

Preventive Measures of Whooping Cough
