Positivity analysis of Bordetella spp. and SARS-CoV-2 coinfections in clinical samples from Colombia, 2021–2022 [PDF]
Pertussis and COVID-19 are respiratory diseases with similar clinical manifestations, complicating diagnosis. In Colombia, pertussis surveillance is based on probable cases confirmed through laboratory detection of Bordetella pertussis.

Genome Sequences of Nine Bordetella holmesii Strains Isolated in the United States. [PDF]
ABSTRACT An increasing number of pertussis-like cases are attributed to the emergent pathogen Bordetella holmesii . The genomes of 9 clinical isolates show that they are clonal, lack the virulence factors encoded by B.

Bordetella holmesii-Like Organisms Isolated from Massachusetts Patients with Pertussis-Like Symptoms
We isolated Bordetella holmesii, generally associated with septicemia in patients with underlying conditions, from nasopharyngeal specimens of otherwise healthy young persons with a cough. The proportion of B.

Bordetella holmesii bacteremia cases in the United States, April 2010-January 2011. [PDF]
We describe the first report of temporally related cases of Bordetella holmesii bacteremia. Demographic and clinical data were collected through chart abstraction and case-patient interviews. Twenty-two cases were identified from 6 states. Symptom onset dates ranged from April 2010 to January 2011.

Genome-based prediction of cross-protective, HLA-DR-presented epitopes as putative vaccine antigens for multiple Bordetella species [PDF]
Acellular pertussis vaccines protect against severe pertussis, but vaccine-induced immunity wanes over time. Prior animal studies showed that T-cell responses are integral to long-lasting immunity.

Reply to “Bordetella holmesii in Nasopharyngeal Samples from Chilean Patients with Suspected Bordetella pertussis Infection” [PDF]
We read with interest the comment of C. Miranda, L. Porte, and P. Garcia contributing to the problem of real-time PCR biological diagnosis of whooping cough using IS 481 as the target. The authors detected Bordetella holmesii in 7 patients out of 51 between 0 and 9 years of age, with 3 being ...

Evaluation of Amplification Targets for the Specific Detection of Bordetella pertussis [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Bordetella pertussis infections continue to be a major public health challenge in Canada. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) assays to detect B pertussis are typically based on the multicopy insertion sequence IS481, which offers high sensitivity but lacks species specificity. METHODS: A novel B pertussis real‐time PCR assay based on the porin
