Tips:

Timely vaccination against diphtheria, tetanus Usually the level of protective antibodies decreases after 3-5 years of vaccination, and the antibodies almost disappear after 12 years. But that doesn't mean vaccination isn't effective.

Shen Hongbing, director of the Central Disease Control and Prevention Department, said in an interview, "No matter whether vaccinated or naturally infected, whooping cough cannot produce lifelong immunity." But vaccination reduces the risk of severe disease and death and remains the most cost-effective means of preventing and controlling whooping cough. ”
