Health

Whooping Cough?

NZ is experiencing a whooping cough epidemic. 70% of newborn cases are caught off a parent or family member because babies don’t have full immunity until they have completed their vaccination course at 5 months of age. It is recommended adults in close contact with a newborn baby receive a booster vaccination because immunity reduces over time. Talk to your doctor to discuss the benefits and possible risks of vaccination or visit www.immune.org.nz.
