That. Is horrifying. I don't even know anything about whooping cough, except that it sounds quaintly old fashioned in a this-disease-probably-killed-ppl-in-the-victorian-era sort of way.
I don't really get people who stop vaccinating their children or, say, drinking pasteurized milk because some article says there's some minor downside to doing it. Like, are your memories and comprehension of history so fuzzy that you do not realize we do those things because people were dying before we started doing them?
