Etiology

Bordetella pertussis

Epidemiology

  • frequent cause of persistent cough in teenagers & adults
    • 14-47% of teenagers with IgA to pertussis antigen(s) indicating past infection[3]
  • among adults women, obese people, & people with asthma more likely to be diagnosed with pertussis[10]
  • immunity from vaccine expires after 6-10 years[2]
  • vaccine appears to confer little protective effect[11]
  • epidemic (1284 cases through early May) 2012 Washington state[5][9]
  • decline in infant pertussis incidence (91%) in the U.K. after introduction of maternal immunization[12]
  • infants most often catch pertussis from their siblings (36%), mothers (21%), & fathers (10%)[18]
  • 2014 pertussis epidemic in California
    • incidence of 26 per 100,000 population
    • 175 cases per 100,000 among infants[13]
  • reappearance of pertussis 2018 likely due to waning of the vaccine's protection[21]
