Protect the community from whooping cough
There’s a high number of cases of whooping cough (also called “pertussis”) in our community this year, especially in school-aged children. Whooping cough can make children very sick, and is especially dangerous for babies.

Whooping cough spreads easily from person to person.

Signs to look for:

It starts with a runny nose, fever and cough.
The cough gets worse at night, and sometimes won't stop.
Children may vomit after coughing. Babies can turn blue and may even stop breathing.
The best protection is vaccination

This protection builds up over several doses. Pregnant women should get vaccinated between 20 and 32 weeks. Babies should have vaccinations at age six weeks, four months, six months and 18 months.

Children should have another vaccination before school, when they are four years old and again in Year Seven. This last dose can be given at school through the NSW Health vaccination program.

If you think you might have whooping cough, it’s important to see your doctor for testing. Antibiotics can help you get better more quickly and stop you from passing whooping cough to others.
