If the trend continues, whooping cough cases could increase some tenfold in 2024 compared to a typical year.

According to figures outlined in the ECDC's latest report on the situation, the majority of European cases occurred in infants — the population for which whooping cough can turn deadly. The second highest group of reported cases occurred in 10-14-year-olds.
