There appear to be no major outbreaks of pertussis since the 1960s. Nevertheless, pediatricians may see isolated cases of pertussis or pertussis\u2010like cases from time to time. Occasionally, infants are severely affected with apneas and managed with ventilator supports in the PICU. Outbreaks of the notifiable disease continue to occur despite a reasonable surveillance system and vaccination program in Hong Kong. Vaccination of mothers, adolescents, and adults are efficacious methods to further reduce the risks of pertussis. Macrolides remain efficacious antibiotics especially used early during the infectious phase. Infants with pertussis may require intensive care support and morbidity is high.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Physicians should be reminded from time to time that outbreaks of pertussis still exist in Hong Kong and in many cities globally.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ppul.25839","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,1,20]],"date-time":"2022-01-20T13:24:12Z","timestamp":1642685052000},"page":"796-799","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Childhood pertussis is still here: An Asian city's perspectives"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"57","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6682-5529","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Kam Lun E.","family":"Hon","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine The Hong Kong Children's Hospital Kowloon Hong Kong"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9960-1687","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yee Ming Jennifer","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Paediatrics and Adolescent Medicine The Hong Kong Children's Hospital Kowloon Hong Kong"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2254-6971","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Alexander K.
