Pertussis Vaccination (dTpa)
for Whooping Cough (Pertussis)
Whooping cough vaccination (dTpa) is the primary prevention strategy. Recommended for all adults and critical for pregnant women to protect newborns.
How it works
Vaccination induces antibodies against Bordetella pertussis antigens providing immunity. Maternal antibodies protect newborns who are most vulnerable.
What to watch for
Immunity wanes over time — boosters every 10 years recommended. Free for pregnant women and new parents under NIP in Australia.
