Guest guest Posted July 20, 2012 Report Share Posted July 20, 2012 Check this from NY http://news./whooping-cough-cases-rise-york-urges-vaccinations-225137022.html Note the word " confirmed " is never mentioned near the word " cases " and then this New York is one of more than a dozen U.S. states reporting a greater than three-fold increase in reported cases of the whooping cough since 2011, according to the CDC. Health officials attributed the rise in whooping cough to the cyclical nature of the disease where the number of reported cases hits a peak every three to five years. New York is seeing its latest peak after earlier outbreaks in 2004, and to a lesser degree in 2008, health department spokesman Constantakes said. In 2004, the state reported over 2,000 cases and in 2008, over 550. In 2009, a trough in the cycle, the state reported just over 350, he said. " The cyclical nature of the disease is really something we don't completely understand, but it seems to happen in all states across the nation, " Constantakes said Sheri Nakken, former R.N., MA, Hahnemannian Homeopath Vaccination Information & Choice Network, Washington State, USA Vaccines - http://vaccinationdangers.wordpress.com/ Homeopathy http://homeopathycures.wordpress.com Vaccine Dangers, Childhood Disease Classes & Homeopathy Online/email courses - next classes start July 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
