Although vaccines are routinely used to prevent infectious diseases, little is known about the comprehensive influences caused by vaccines. In this study, we showed, using comprehensive gene expression analysis, that pertussis vaccine affected many genes in multiple organs of vaccine-treated animals. In particular, lung was revealed to be the most suitable target to evaluate pertussis vaccine toxicity. The 13 genes identified from the analysis of vaccine-treated lung at day 1 showed a clear dendrogram corresponding to pertussis vaccine toxicity. Furthermore, quantitative analysis of these genes revealed a positive correlation between their respective expression levels and the degree of toxic effects observed in samples that had been treated with various doses of reference pertussis vaccines. The quantification of this 13 gene-set is an indicator of the vaccine toxicity-related reaction.

Pertussis (or whooping cough) has experienced a global resurgence despite widespread vaccine efforts. In China, the incidence of pertussis has rapidly increased, particularly following the COVID-19 pandemic. Whole-genome sequencing analysis was performed on 60 strains isolated in Beijing from 2020 to 2023, and the sequences were compared with those of 635 strains from China and 943 strains from other countries.

Background: Pertussis is a highly contagious respiratory disease caused by (BP). Despite global control of pertussis cases through the Expanded Programme on Immunization (EPI), there has been a significant increase in the incidence of pertussis in recent years, characterized by a "resurgence" in developed countries with high immunization rates as well as a comparable reemergence in certain areas of China. We aim to explore the genotypes and antimicrobial susceptibility of circulating BP from children in Hebei.

Background: Data on impact of financial penalties for non-vaccination are sparse. Australia has required full vaccination for government family assistance payment eligibility since 1998. In 2016, the No Jab, No Pay (NJNP) policy removed registered non-medical objection as exemption option and increased eligibility assessment to yearly.
