Antimicrobial susceptibilities of Bordetella species isolated in a Multicenter Pertussis Surveillance Project [PDF]
MICs for 90% (MIC90s) of 75 Bordetella pertussis strains for amoxicillin, erythromycin, rifampin, and sulfamethoxazole-trimethoprim were 1, less than or equal to 0.12, 1, and 4 micrograms/ml, respectively. Susceptibility rates were all greater than or equal to 93%. Only 17% of the strains were susceptible to tetracycline.

Pertussis Surveillance in Private Pediatric Practices, France, 2002–2006
To the Editor: In France, pertussis epidemiology has been extensively studied since 1993. Immunization of children with a highly efficacious pertussis whole-cell (Pw) vaccine (Sanofi Pasteur MSD, Lyon, France) for 40 years (since 1966) has reduced the incidence of pertussis.
