What do you mean by recently? I am 65 and was the child at 2 mo. with whooping cough. (Poor Mamma) but my kids now 37 and 34 had DPT shots when they were young - Diptheria, Pertussis (whooping cough) and Tetnus. (Of course, when you consider the history of mankind, that is quite recently, even though in my lifetime, it is a quite a while ago)

It is so amazing what we know now compared even to a few years ago. It is hard for me to believe that there are so many who don't immunize their children. Sometimes I think we have so much information that we confuse ourselves!
