| Whooping Cough (Pertussis)
California is in the middle of the worst whooping cough epicemic in 50 years. This illness causes prolonged coughing fits which end in a characteristic "whoop" noise, often associated with near-vomiting. The illness usually lasts 3 to 6 weeks. It can be fatal in young infants less than six months old. So far, as of August 20, 2010, eight California infants have died from it this year.
