Despite high infant immunization rates, pertussis infection rates are increasing in many countries and pertussis outbreaks have occurred. Recent control strategies for pertussis have focused on immunizing adolescents and adults with pertussis booster vaccines in an effort to provide herd immunity. Participants will discuss these strategies as well as latebreaking data from the 2010 California outbreak that suggests the booster may be ineffective after 3 years.

  • I think they are trying to kill our kids. That's what the rich people have always done, right? kill people. That's how they stay rich. Selling bombs and vaccines to our governments who then use them on us. All the brain disorders aren't caused by the metal neurotixins they begin injecting into us from the time we are born, it must be something else. Nothing to see here. I hear people are beginning to occupy major cities in the U.S.
