PubMedID- 21533103 Although we cannot formally rule out the possibility that mortality was due to influenza virus exacerbation of b. pertussis infection (rather than the other way around), this is very unlikely since b. pertussis infection in immunocompetent mice is rarely lethal, even at much higher bacterial loads than those seen in our experiments, and pt treatment was able to replicate the increased mortality effect.
PubMedID- 25880530 Participants and/or health care professionals may also have confused recommended antenatal influenza vaccination timing with pertussis postnatal timing (cocooning strategies) which were recommended at the time of survey.
