Whooping Cough

All pregnant ladies will now have to have a jag for whooping cough ... What do you think and will you have it ?

Nothings been said to me about this but I do remember a few months back how they say whooping cough seems to work on a cycle and every so many years we seem to get a pandemic

I think I would get it. I saw something on the news with a baby who had it and it was awful. And he was one of the lucky ones that survived, I just couldn't bare it.

I'm all for vaccinations I think the risk of the illness the vaccine is to prevent far outweigh any potential risk the vaccine itself might cause.

It has been on the news 10 babies have died from it recently and they say it is rife atm so now protection is being offered to newborns via the mums antibodies during pregnancy and the injection is to help make these

I'm not sure. I'm not keen on vaccinations. However, considering the risk of whooping cough to a newborn then I probably would

i would have took it, i am paranoid every time he coughs i think something is wrong :/
