An elevated lymphocytes level means that you have a higher than usual amount of white blood cells called lymphocytes. Because these cells are used to fight of infection, people tend to produce more of them when they are ill.

Can whooping cough cause high lymphocyte?

lymphocytes are generally elevated in viral infections and leukemias and lymphomas. Most bacterial infections cause a high white blood cell count but the particular population of cells that is relatively elevated is the granulocyte, not the lymphocyte. Whooping cough is a bacterial infection and thus we would expect elevated granulocytes, not lymphocytes. With that being said, whooping cough is a strange type of bacteria and actually DOES cause high lymphocytes. This correlation is so strong that the level of lymphocytes actually correlates to the severity of the disease.
