Get a TDaP booster if it's been more than five years and extra especially if it's been more than ten years! Pertussis (whooping cough) immunity wears off over time and it's currently circulating again! You do not want whooping cough!

For the curious:
www.cdc.gov/pertussis/si...
"One to 2 weeks after the first symptoms start, people may develop ... coughing fits. These ... usually last 1 to 6 weeks but can last for up to 10 weeks.
The cough generally gets worse and becomes more common as the illness continues."

Speaking of boosters, I got a covid one today, and took diphenhydramine beforehand like you recommended - and so far I don't feel like death! 🎉 Let's hope this continues lol

I got whooping cough because my immunity wore off and it was horrible. The noise is exactly like you imagine, fully unable to breathe and gasping to suck air into your lungs

I just had it a few months ago. Horrible. I had no idea I was behind on a booster.

I had whooping cough while 6 months pregnant and my lungs were squeezed up into the top of my torso. Definitely the sickest I’ve ever been. And for a year afterwards every cold went to my lungs and was 10x worse than normal. 0/10 would not recommend.

Someone who's had it as an adult cosigning this! For me the initial infection was *worse than my COVID infection*. It SUCKED. So much.
