The role of respiratory virus infection in suspected pertussis: A prospective study
Background: Infections caused by Bordetella pertussis are frequent and responsible for cases of huge severity in unvaccinated young infants. However, clinical manifestations vary and mimic other respiratory diseases as respiratory viruses.
