       About Whooping Cough
       By John Hopkin’s University
       SUMMARY:
       Whooping cough is caused by a bacterium called Bordetella
       pertussis. The illness is characterized by coughing spells that
       end with a characteristic "whoop" as air is inhaled. Whooping
       cough caused thousands of deaths in the 1930s and 1940s. With
       the advent of a vaccine, the death rate has declined
       dramatically. Pertussis vaccines are very effective. However, if
       pertussis is circulating in the community, there is a
       possibility that even a fully vaccinated person could catch the
       disease…

       COMMENT:
       One of the great benefits of proper masking with an N95 mask to
       help prevent covid is that masking helps prevent all airborne
       illnesses and airborne diseases such as whooping cough as well!
       Herein lies the beauty of masking: The mask is like the
       all-in-one multifunctional Swiss Army knife of protection for
       airborne illness and disease: wear a mask and you’ve got most
       all your bases covered,
       Mask for to prevent covid and you’ll be masking to prevent
       whooping cough, influenza, pneumonia, flu, avian flu, allergies,
       occupational airborne hazards, etc.
       Mask to prevent  one airborne illness and you’ll be masking to
       prevent all of them! Now to get all that protection from a
       mask.. that’s some power, that’s a bargain, and that’s a good
       deal!,

       P.S.
       “Long-term effects of whooping cough can include pneumonia,
       seizures, and brain damage, particularly in infants, and
       complications like broken ribs, hernias, and weight loss in
       older children and adults.”
       .. to cough so hard you “break your ribs and have hernias”!?
       That’s not just coughing that’s dying! That’s some violent
       convulsive suffocating! I prefer masking to prevent this! I
       prefer masking in this day and age to prevent breathing in a
       multitude & slew of airborne hell & torture.
       I’m not gambling that. I don’t care what the odds are, I mask
       because the stakes are too high.
