Pertactin-Deficient Bordetella pertussis, Vaccine-Driven Evolution, and Reemergence of Pertussis
Recent reemergence of pertussis (whooping cough) in highly vaccinated populations and rapid expansion of Bordetella pertussis strains lacking pertactin (PRN), a common acellular vaccine antigen, have raised the specter of vaccine-driven evolution and ...

The common adverse reactions associated with diphtheria, tetanus and pertussis (DTP) vaccination are less frequent and less severe with acellular DTP (DTaP) vaccines than with whole cell DTP (DTwP) vaccines. Five key parameters have been identified whose prevalence through the first 48 hours following vaccination accurately characterise the common ...
