Whooping cough cases are rising fast, with more than 8,000 reported in 2025--doubling last year’s numbers (and it’s only June). The whooping cough vaccine remains highly effective, especially in preventing severe illness and hospitalizations in infants, and boosters help extend that protection over time. Given the current rise in cases, it's important that you and your family are up to date with vaccinations. When more of us are vaccinated, we help build a healthier, safer community for everyone. Talk with your pediatrician about staying current with your whooping cough vaccinations. Learn more: https://bit.ly/3HGmSTB
