Whooping Cough (Pertussis)

Whooping cough is a bacterial infection that causes severe coughing fits, sometimes making it hard to breathe. It can be especially dangerous for infants and young children. Vaccination and early treatment are important in managing the illness.

“The Lord is my strength and my shield.” – Psalm 28:7

Strong and faithful God,
be the shield around those who struggle to breathe.
Protect them in moments of distress,
and restore steady breath and strength.
Let Your protection be constant and near. Amen.
