Over the past two months of 2024, the Ministry of Health in Ukraine has recorded 515 cases of whooping cough, especially among young children, on Facebook.

The RBC-Ukraine report emphasizes that this disease is becoming increasingly common due to inadequate vaccination. Whooping cough can be particularly dangerous for infants and can lead to serious complications. Although older children and adults usually recover, the illness can be very exhausting and last for several months. If symptoms appear, it is important to seek medical attention immediately.
