yeah I know some people call it the 100 day cough, it just makes it sound unserious to me. Maybe it's more common in the UK though.

Also

Earlier this year the UKHSA warned that uptake of the maternal Whooping Cough vaccine had dropped to its lowest level in seven years.

Good, so yet again it's likely due to increased anti-vax sentiment in the west

It's like people started preventing sewage from getting into drinking water, found it prevented a lot of diseases, and then went right back to putting sewage in drinking water because it was cheaper not to.

porky-happy "Now that everyone's gotten, and gotten over, their mild case of cholera, our immune systems have learned to fight it and we don't have to clean the water anymore. Just remember to wash your hands."
