Whooping cough, another name for pertussis, is a very contagious disease caused by the bacteria Bordetella pertussis. It can be serious for anyone, but life-threatening for newborns and infants. Symptoms—Sometimes the Cough is the Clue, but not Always Whooping cough may begin like a common cold—runny nose, low-grade fever, and coughing. It spreads when an infected person sneezes or coughs while in close contact with others. Unlike the common cold, the pertussis cough continues and may get worse. Coughing can come in violent fits. The name “whooping cough ” comes from the high-pitched noise—a “whoop”—that infants and children make when they gasp for air after a fit of coughing
