A critical level of serum IgG pertussis toxin antibody is both essential and sufficient to confer individual and herd immunity to pertussis. Monocomponent pertussis toxoid conferred such immunity in Sweden and in Denmark. We refute the notion that filamentous hemagglutinin, pertactin, and fimbriae add to the immunity conferred by pertussis toxoid and ...

Evaluation of Immunobiological Properties of Bordetella pertussis Vaccine Strains
The study performed as part of evaluation of immunobiological properties of Bordetella pertussis vaccine strains offered an opportunity to standardize pertussis bacterial mass based on the content of surface antigens — agglutinogens 1, 2 and 3.

The association between vaccine hesitancy and pertussis: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Background Robust routine immunization schedules for pertussis-containing vaccines have been applied for years, but pertussis outbreaks remain a worldwide problem. This study aimed to investigate the association between vaccine hesitancy and pertussis in

Rare Detection of Bordetella pertussis Pertactin-Deficient Strains in Argentina
Pertussis resurgence had been attributed to waning vaccine immunity and Bordetella pertussis adaptation to escape vaccine-induced immunity. Circulating bacteria differ genotypically from strains used in production of pertussis vaccine.

Pertussis Toxin: A Key Component in Pertussis Vaccines?
B. pertussis is a human-specific pathogen and the causative agent of whooping cough. The ongoing resurgence in pertussis incidence in high income countries is likely due to faster waning of immunity and increased asymptomatic colonization in individuals ...
