BACKGROUND: The clinical presentation of Bordetella pertussis can overlap with that of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), and coinfection does occur, but management differs. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

  All whole cell vaccines are reactogenic, causing fever and local reactions in many vaccinees. In the past, these vaccines were thought to cause infant deaths and brain damage. [doi.org]

• Cough

  Frequencies of typical symptoms of whooping cough, such as paroxysmal coughing, whooping and vomiting, were almost identical in the two groups. Nocturnal coughing and contact anamnesis were noted more often in the Bordetella pertussis group. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

• Persistent Cough

  Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is a respiratory infection that causes a persistent cough in all age groups from the newborn to the elderly. [ibl-international.com]

  Pertussis can also present as a non-specific persistent cough Vomiting often follows a coughing spasm. Infants may develop apnoea and/or cyanosis with coughing spasms. Close contact with a case of Pertussis may raise suspicion. [rch.org.au]
