How serious is whooping cough? Is whooping cough going around? How long does whooping cough last? What is the pertussis vaccine? What are the symptoms of whooping cough? Discussing pertussis in adults, treatment for whooping cough symptoms, pertussis vaccines and more with Alyssa Kuban, MD, associate medical director at Texas Children's Pediatrics Cypress. American Medical Association CXO Todd Unger hosts.

Formaldehyde, a cancer-causing toxin is being used as a preservative in cosmetic cremes, lotions,serums, wipes, oils, gels, and foams, an urgent warning has been issued to millions of women afterthe carcinogen formaldehyde was detected in dozens of popular personal care products. What's notbeing reported is formaldehyde is an ingredient in many children and adult vaccines including DPT(Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis), flu shots, polio, hepatitis and others. Why is the American CancerSociety not sounding the alarm about formaldehyde in vaccines?Dr. Bob and Dr. Brockman take calls and emails from listeners

Whooping cough, also known as pertussis, is a highly contagious respiratory infection caused by the bacteria Bordetella pertussis. It's characterized by severe, persistent coughing fits, often ending with a high-pitched "whoop" sound. The disease can be very serious, especially for infants, and is preventable through vaccination. ​​​Whooping cough is an illness that can spread easily. It's also called pertussis. An infection with bacteria causes it. Many people with the illness get a serious hacking cough. Breathing in after coughing often causes a high-pitched noise that sounds like a "whoop." ​Before the vaccine for pertussis came out, whooping cough was thought of as a childhood disease. Today, whooping cough mainly affects children too young to have gotten all their shots of the vaccine. The illness also tends to affect teenagers and adults whose protection from the vaccine has faded. ​Deaths linked with whooping cough are rare. Most often, they occur in infants. But pregnant people can help protect their babies by getting a booster shot of the vaccine during pregnancy. Vaccination also is recommended for other people who will have close contact with an infant. ​Once you become infected with whooping cough, it takes about 5 to 10 days for symptoms to start. Sometimes it takes up to three weeks. The symptoms often are mild at first. They may seem like those of a common cold. They can include: Runny or stuffy nose. Red, watery eyes. Fever. Cough. ​​After a week or two, the symptoms become worse. Thick mucus builds up inside the airways. This causes rapid coughing that can't be controlled. The cough can last for weeks or months, and it may be worse at night. Intense coughing attacks may cause: Vomiting. A red or blue face. Extreme tiredness. A high-pitched "whoop" sound during the next breath of air. ​People with mild illnesses often don't make the whooping sound. Sometimes, an ongoing hacking cough is the only symptom of whooping cough in teens and adults. ​Many babies with the illness don't cough at all. Some babies and young children might. Gag or struggle to breathe. Have skin, lips or nails that turn blue or purple. Have life-threatening pauses in breathing called apnea. (credits)

In this episode, Dr. Rahul Damania, Dr. Pradip Kamat, and Dr. Monica Gray dive into a critical case involving a five-week-old baby facing acute respiratory failure due to pertussis. They chat about how this condition shows up, how it's diagnosed, and the best ways to manage it, especially considering the serious complications it can cause in infants, like pulmonary hypertension and the potential need for ECMO. The conversation underscores the importance of catching it early and providing supportive care, while also highlighting how crucial vaccination is in preventing pertussis. Tune in to learn how severe this disease can be and why staying alert in pediatric care is so important.Show Highlights:Clinical case of a five-week-old infant with acute respiratory failure and pertussis diagnosisEpidemiology and public health impact of pertussis, including vaccination rates and outbreak patternsPathophysiology of pertussis and its effects on respiratory health, particularly in infantsClinical presentation of pertussis, including stages of the disease and atypical symptoms in infantsDiagnostic approaches for pertussis, including laboratory findings and PCR testingManagement strategies for severe pertussis, including supportive care and antibiotic therapyPotential complications associated with pertussis, especially in young infantsDifferential diagnosis considerations for pertussis and distinguishing features from other infectionsImportance of vaccination in preventing pertussis and reducing morbidity and mortalityECMO as a treatment option for severe cases and its associated challenges, and outcomesWe welcome you to share your feedback, subscribe & place a review on our podcast!

What if our worst moments are actually an opportunity to shift into a deeper connection with ourselves and everyone and everything around us?  In this episode of Language of Love Conversation, I sit down with Jacob Cooper—author, therapist, and someone who's experienced a life-changing near-death experience (NDE)—to explore how we can maintain this connection beyond the physical. Jacob's story is incredible. At just three years old, he experienced an NDE due to whooping cough (Pertussis), and it completely reshaped his understanding of life, death, and the eternal nature of the soul. Through his experience, Jacob has come to realize that our loved ones who have crossed over are still with us—watching over us, guiding us, and helping us grow. There's no true separation between us and them; the bond remains, even in the afterlife. Jacob shares how, through surrender, we can tap into the spiritual wisdom and love that our departed loved ones send us from beyond. In this conversation, Jacob also explores the role of past lives, the deep soul contracts we share with those we love, and how we can recognize and nurture relationships with our soul family—both here and on the other side. We also dive into the importance of living in the present moment, remembering that we're eternally connected to love. Here's a preview of what we talk about: How Jacob's NDE at three years old opened his eyes to the eternal nature of the soul How our departed loved ones continue to watch over us and send us messages from the other side The role of past lives and soul contracts in our current relationships How to feel the presence of your soul family and deepen these connections Why embracing the present moment helps us align with the boundless love of spirit If you're looking for more on this journey, Jacob's books The Wisdom of Jacob's Ladder and Life After Breath take you on a powerful exploration of his NDE and the wisdom he uncovered. It's a beautiful reminder that death isn't the end, and our loved ones are never really gone. For more guidance and resources on your own spiritual journey, be sure to visit my website—it's packed with tools to help you stay connected to the love and wisdom of the other side!

Depending on where you live, you might be hearing a lot lately about Pertussis or Whooping Cough, even in Dr. Sydnee and Justin's home county.

hVIVO PLC CEO Yamin 'Mo' Khan talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's involvement in a world-first Phase 3 human challenge trial for a pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine candidate. The trial, in partnership with ILiAD Biotechnologies, is expected to start in the second half of this year. Khan highlighted the importance of this milestone for hVIVO, noting that it will be the company's largest challenge trial to date and its first bacterial challenge trial. The trial data aims to secure FDA marketing authorisation, marking a pivotal moment for the utility of human challenge trials in vaccine development. According to Khan, "The goal is to get a better vaccine to patients faster. Pertussis is a severe disease, particularly for infants, and there's an urgent need for new vaccines." He further explained that hVIVO's state-of-the-art Canary Wharf facility will play a critical role in supporting this trial, equipped with expanded laboratory capabilities for bacterial analysis. The trial comes as cases of pertussis are on the rise, increasing sixfold between 2023 and 2024. ILiAD Biotechnologies has also secured FDA fast-track status and an MHRA innovation passport for this vaccine candidate. Khan emphasised the partnership's goal of addressing this unmet medical need and delivering an effective vaccine to patients worldwide.

A whooping cough epidemic has been declared in Aotearoa. In the past four weeks, there have been 263 cases of whooping cough (Pertussis) - the highest number of cases over a month this year. Immunisation Advisory Centre founder Dr Nikki Turner explains what's been happening.

It appears that Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers – Lassa Fever, Ebola and Marburg virus are getting all the press. However, Pertussis (whooping cough) is an area that needs focus. The cases for 2024 are at least four-times higher than in 2023, and many departments have not offered the required Tdap booster to protect healthcare personnel. An additional dose of Tdap was first recommended in 2005 and then again in 2011. Pertussis is not on the radar, and we need to ensure that healthcare providers are protected. This session addresses vaccine, personal protective equipment and post-exposure medical follow up.

With the CDC reporting whooping cough case numbers that exceed even pre-pandemic levels - and which have more than doubled since this time last year - the ENA Podcast talks with ENA Pediatric Committee Chair Julie Cohen about what to look for and how to respond to suspected pertussis patients in the ED.

Whooping cough is spreading around the country. This is just the latest epidemic of this highly contagious bacterial illness that has seen a large resurgence over many years now. Here are the questions we address:What is whooping cough? What are the symptoms? How contagious is it? How is it treated? What can I do to prevent it?

Tdap is an inactivated vaccine that protects you against three different illnesses: tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis. Pertussis is commonly known as whooping cough. The Tdap vaccine is recommended between 27 and 36 weeks of pregnancy. The main reason any vaccine is recommended during pregnancy is for the passive immunity your baby receives. Vaccines are a complex and often controversial topic. This episode follows a systematic approach that includes thorough research to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the Tdap vaccine.     Thank you to our sponsor   Zahler goes above and beyond to use high-quality bioavailable ingredients like the active form of folate, bioavailable iron, and omega 3s.

In the last few years, we've heard a lot about measles outbreaks around the world. Anti-vaccine rhetoric is responsible for some of that, but some cases occur because people didn't get enough vaccine as children. Now health officials are seeing a rise in pertussis...whooping cough...cases. Dr. Janice Fitzgerald is the province's chief medical officer of health, and she spoke with CBC's Leigh Anne Power.

Pertussis, or whooping cough cases have been on the rise in many places of the world this year, and the Philippines is one of those countries. During the first three months of the year, Philippines health officials have reported well over 1,100 cases, which is a more than 30 fold increase over the same period in 2023. In addition more than 50 deaths have been reported, all in young children Here to talk more about pertussis and the situation in the Philippines is Edsel Salvana, MD. Dr Salvana is Director and Professor, Institute of Molecular Biology and Biotechnology, National Institutes of Health, University of the Philippines Manila.

Whooping Cough is classified as an infectious disease with a list of symptoms as vague as the average cold, but with an onomatopoeia of 'whooping' after a cough that makes it sound scary. Although a vaccine has been around since 1914, and data on cases was reported first in 1922, the CDC only began reporting a decline in cases in the late 1940s for which they attribute to, as of 1948, a mixed dosage of the pertussis vaccine. They ignore the 34 previous years of vaccine usage that did nothing, or maybe only 26 years since data was first taken in 1922, and in fact may have made the problem worse considering the highest case counts were between 1914 and 1948, nearing 300,000 a year. Still, cases didn't begin to serious dip until 17 years after the 1948 triple vaccine dosage came out - around 1965. It wasn't until 2003-2020 that cases spiked above 10,000 again, with 48,000+ reported in 2012. But, here's anther scam; the CDC changed reporting procedure during that time, implementing a new program in 2011 in order to sell more vaccines that hadn't worked for, at that point, almost 100 years! As son as the change occurred cases spiked tens of thousands. And these are just cases, not deaths. Of the millions of babies born in the U.S. alone each year less than two dozen actually die, and it has nothing to do with vaccines. This same statistical data manipulation is used for other diseases, weather, politics, etc. It is pure evil.This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5328407/advertisement
