Babies have died. Get your PERTUSSIS BOOSTER people. We aren't used to thinking we need it, but, seriously... get it! Particularly if you are hanging out with a wee one, but even to be a good person. you can infect someone who infects someone who infects their baby.
My friend's grandson already has come down with it. He was vaccinated so it was just a VERY yucky time, but he is ok.
