Whooping Cough Update: Cases in LA County Continue to Grow
Studies show pertussis spreads most frequently through families; if you
live with an infant make sure you have been vaccinated.
Los Angeles County Department of Public Health is reminding residents who live with or care for an infant need make sure that they have received a vaccination against pertussis (whooping cough) to avoid inadvertently infecting them.
The number of pertussis cases reported in LA County is continuing to rise, and the county’s youngest residents remain most vulnerable to the illness, which causes intense coughing and vomiting related to coughing, and could lead to pneumonia and seizures.
This year, 148 suspected cases have been reported in Los Angeles County, of which 70 have been lab-confirmed so far or meet the clinical case definition for pertussis.
According to a recent study, 41 percent of infants infected with pertussis contracted the disease from a sibling, 38 percent from their mother, and 17 percent from their father.
Pertussis is spread by the coughing of an infected individual. Typical symptoms in young children include intense coughing accompanied by a whooping sound, and post-cough vomiting. Complications can include pneumonia and seizures. Among older children and adults, the primary symptom may be a cough that often lasts for several weeks or longer. If you suspect that you or a loved one may have pertussis, contact your doctor right away.
Los Angeles County residents are encouraged to contact their regular
healthcare provider to arrange for recommended vaccinations.
Those who do not have a regular healthcare provider or insurance
coverage for vaccines may dial 2-1-1 or visit www.publichealth.lacounty.gov/ip
