" I worked in pathology, testing the pertussis victims in the first pertussis outbreak EVER where I live in Australia, in a city of 45,000. This city achieved a 90% vaccination rate against pertussis. There was a 100 percent failure rate of this vaccine, which has been in use since 1995.
These kids get 5 pertussis jabs by age 5. This vaccine failed 100 percent within 10 years. The first kids jabbed in 1995 (with the final jab in 2000) were by 2010 the first batch of 100% failures of the vaccine.
Add to that the fact we swabbed throats of other kids, with working vaccine (ie no symptoms) they had pertussis in their throats, and they were spreading it............... kids were spreading pertussis without showing symptoms!
Pertussis is now affecting over 1 in 30 kids each year, and that statistic does not factor in that most people don't bother to report it.
As for USA, UK? Your epidemics will begin to hit big time in another couple of years. You are 9 years later in introducing the aP vaccine. The current UK stats are identical to Australia's rise in pertussis 9 years ago"
