A colleague of mine had whoopin' cough about 20 years ago. He still refers to it as the worse 2 months of his life. it's also *so contagious*. It also used to be one of the leading causes of death in children under 5 in the US.
My travel doc updated my vaccine just to be safe (there are regular outbreaks in many parts of Africa), so I too may recklessly juggle/cough on babies :)
