No infection source was confirmed. Four (3.5%) healthcare providers were positive for anti-pertussis IgM, while only 23% (26/113) were positive for IgG in a following survey. Pertussis vaccination for healthcare providers is needed. Copyright ? 2016 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved. |
