Callie Van Tornhout was about a month old when her mother noticed that she'd developed a dry cough on a Sunday afternoon in January.
Soon the cough worsened, and Callie became pale and started throwing up, Callie's mother, Katie Van Tornhout told ABC News. By the middle of the week, Callie stopped breathing in her mother's arms in a pediatrician's waiting room and was rushed to the hospital.
On Saturday, less than a week after the cough first appeared, Callie died at 37 days old on Jan. 30, 2010. It wasn't until a few weeks later that tests confirmed the culprit: whooping cough.

This child abuse? Certainly if it were Christian sectarians refusing medical care for their kids, they'd be prosecuted.
Gee. Wonder why.
Whooping Cough ping...
Imported via criminal aliens?
I blame climate change! /sarc
Diversity is our strength. Cough, cough. Hack.
This makes me want to spit hairballs.
Coming up...leprosy! Where’s our old pal Ebola?
How do you cough in Spanish?
Can’t imagine what brought this one back.
Yeah, I can't imagine why TB has come back either.
Bush/Obama Administration’s Illegal Invasion they call an Immigration Policies Fault. {not kidding nor sarcasm} What next in third world diseases will be brought into the U.S.? Pass the Sugar Cubes please?
Careful ‘blaming Bush’ around here; you’ll attract the attention of the ‘Bush-lover’ clique.
/s
I proudly wear my own scars from their attacks...
Spot-on, imho.
Thank a wetback AND the anti vaccine crowd.
The wants of USCOC came first as did China's, The Sauds, Mexico's, who else did I leave out? If Bush had put as much effort into addressing abuses caused by Liberalism and reducing the size and powers of federal government as he did expanding both then Obama would not have been the problem he became. We have not had a national or foreign policy shift in four administrations. All we get is increases in their extremism.
I had hope in the GOP back in 1994. However John The Backstabbing Elitist Sellout Boehner destroyed the GOP back in 1996 and quietly took over control of the congress from behind the scenes. His masterminding the ousting of Newt and ending The Contract With America was done to give control of the party to the Corporate and foreign interest which both parties now serve.
The loss of lives of innocents killed in the U.S. by Third World Diseases illegally brought back into the United States we had nearly eradicated are a direct result of their policies one and all.
It won't surprise me that the Bush's adopt another son/brother for Jebthro & Gorge come third week in January 2017.
when do newborns get their first vaccine against whooping cough?
There was a whooping cough epidemic at a prestigious New England college several years ago. One of the professors got it. She had probably been vaccinated too long ago to have any immunity. These childhood diseases are more severe when adults get them, which probably built up a culture of making sure kids got them, before there were vaccines. I remember mothers purposely taking their daughters to visit kids with german measles so they wouldn’t get the disease while pregnant, when it could hurt the baby.
That said, there may be some truth to the anti-vacciners’ fear. Possibly the problem is caused by having too many shots in one day. I think the “jury is still out” on this one. It’s been politicized for some reason. Oh right, everything is, I forgot.
Let’s not forget to put Ronald Reagan in that group, as much as I admire the man. He signed into law (with his own hand) the Immigration and Control Act of 1986 which was the first instance of “amnesty” for illegal immigrants, among other unpalatable aspects of the act.
The greatest existential threat to America as founded can be found at Capital Hill and 1600 Pennsylvania.
