Ensure the voices of people living with dementia and their caregivers are heard. Urge your members of Congress to reaffirm their commitment to the Alzheimer’s community today. We’ve made great progress and we cannot afford to stop now. bit.ly/alzaction

Infant dies amid worst Queensland whooping cough epidemic on record Queensland Health confirms child’s death from highly contagious infection as vaccination rates plummet and cases spike across Australia

A two-month-old has died from pertussis in Queensland, Australia. Like many countries including the US, Australia is in the midst of a pertussis epidemic. In Queensland, uptake of maternal pertussis vaccination & infant vaccinations have declined. Lower rates of both put the youngest at risk.
