Whooping cough, caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis, can lead to several residual effects, particularly in young children and infants. After recovery, individuals may experience prolonged coughing fits, fatigue, and difficulty breathing, which can last for weeks or even months. In some cases, there can be complications such as pneumonia, seizures, or in rare instances, long-term respiratory issues. Adults who have had whooping cough may also experience a persistent cough, but typically to a lesser extent.
