Whooping cough, caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, significantly affected Native American populations during the 18th and 19th centuries, particularly after European contact. The introduction of this disease, along with other Infectious Diseases such as smallpox and measles, led to devastating outbreaks among Native communities, who had no prior exposure or immunity. These epidemics contributed to a dramatic decline in their populations and disrupted their social structures.
