Whooping Cough…yes it’s really dangerous

So I know people were sniggering behind my back when I was pregnant and asking everyone to please get a TDAP shot for Pertussis (it’s a Tetanus booster shot and also covers Diptheria) vaccination. Pertussis is very dangerous and can be deadly in infants. Generally, people believe Whooping Cough is gone, but there have been outbreaks in Southern California. My wonderful Judy contracted it recently! And now this:

So I hate to say “I told you so” but…who am I kidding? I love it! 😉
