Sinossi

Whooping Cough offers a comprehensive exploration of pertussis, a highly contagious respiratory illness making a resurgence despite widespread vaccination efforts. The book addresses critical questions surrounding the protection of newborns and strategies to curb transmission among adults, who often unknowingly spread the disease. Pertussis, caused by Bordetella pertussis, poses a significant public health challenge, especially given the evolving dynamics of infectious diseases and waning immunity. Did you know that immunity from acellular vaccines may wane, contributing to outbreaks even in vaccinated populations, or that adults can be carriers without showing classic symptoms?

 
The book progresses from the history of pertussis and the development of vaccines to the clinical manifestations across different age groups, highlighting the severe complications in infants. It examines current diagnostic methods, the role of antibiotics, and prevention strategies. A unique aspect is its critical examination of recent outbreaks and evaluation of different vaccination schedules, drawing upon data from organizations like the CDC and WHO.

 
Ultimately, the book emphasizes that combating pertussis in the 21st century requires a multi-faceted approach involving robust vaccination, heightened awareness, and rapid diagnostics. The book uniquely connects infectious disease and public health with immunology, vaccinology, and health communication. This interdisciplinary approach is essential for understanding vaccine mechanisms, addressing vaccine hesitancy, and promoting informed decision-making. It provides practical guidance for healthcare professionals, public health officials, and concerned parents seeking reliable information, making it a valuable resource for improving vaccination rates and implementing effective control measures against this persistent infectious disease.

    “Many believe that we, in this century,” writes Ethel Rosenberg, “ are witnessing the dawn of a new spiritual epoch or era. A renewal of the Spirit is making itself felt in the Churches and in the religious and social life of all lands. This is in harmony with the teachings of the Bahais, and of their Great Leaders, now represented by Abdul Baha the ‘Servant of God,’ known to the outside world as Abbas Effendi. Once again, the Light is shining forth from that land which may indeed be called the Holy Land: for have not its valleys and hills been trodden from the beginning by the feet of those great Messengers inspired of God-Abraham, Elijah, and last and greatest, Jesus of Nazareth? Is it strange that once more in this century of ours, in this ‘cradle of the race,’ those that were sitting “in darkness have seen a Great Light,” the light of the Sun of Righteousness that rises with healing in his wings?”Ethel Jenner Rosenberg (1858-1930) was a prominent British Bahá’í, having been introduced to the Bahá’í Faith in 1899 by Mary Thornburgh-Cropper. She published two booklets on the Bahá’í Faith, of which “A Brief Account of the Bahai Movement” was one. She also presented a paper on the Bahá’í Faith at the International Congress for the History of Religions in 1908. She assisted Laura Clifford Barney in compiling Some Answered Questions and Lady Blomfield in compiling Paris Talks. She began to learn Persian and assisted Shoghi Effendi, the Guardian of the Bahá’í Faith, in translating the Hidden Words of Bahá’u’lláh. She was described by Shoghi Effendi as ‘England’s pioneer worker’. (Introduction by Nicholas James Bridgewater)
