SUMMARY .
Infants, especially those who have not been vaccinated, are at a higher risk
of severe complications and even death from whooping cough compared to
teens and adults. In infants, the disease can cause intense coughing
episodes, breathing difficulties, and challenges with eating and drinking. It
is important to note that most infants with whooping cough do not cough at
all but may show signs of turning blue or having breathing difficulties.
