Whooping cough, caused by the Bordetella pertussis bacteria, can potentially affect anyone, especially those who are unvaccinated or have not received booster shots. Vaccination is key in preventing the disease, and immunity can wane over time, making boosters important for adolescents and adults. If you are up-to-date with vaccinations, your risk is significantly reduced. However, it's still advisable to stay informed about outbreaks and maintain good respiratory hygiene.
