Whooping Cough Returns

Description

This is the assignment from the professor: Whooping cough is a disease that Doctors do not recognize anymore because it is so rare. Read the article 40 Cases of Whooping Cough Diagnosed Last Week in Santa Clarita (Links to an external site.) and discuss these recent outbreaks or outbreaks from other vaccine preventable diseases, such as the mumps outbreak Ocean County New Jersey experienced in recent years. Please include references. From me, the writer: This is a discussion that will be posted for classmates to respond to. The point in the end I would like to make is that anti vaccine parents are causing these outbreaks of these deadly diseases to come back and it is not okay. I think that they should make them mandatory again, especially to go to public schools. Grading rubric that I am given.
