Spokane Regional Health District has seen an increased number of whooping cough (pertussis) cases throughout Spokane County. Whooping cough is an infection that affects the airways and can easily spread from person to person by coughing or sneezing. Whooping cough can cause a severe cough that lasts for weeks or months, sometimes leading to coughing fits or vomiting. Anyone can get whooping cough, but it can be very dangerous for babies and people with certain health conditions. In addition to whooping cough, there has also been increased incidence of ‘walking pneumonia’ throughout the United States this year compared to previous years. And of course, the common cold, flu, COVID-19, and RSV tend to circulate more in the colder months.
