L.A. County health officials sent an email to doctors last week warning of three clusters of whooping cough — also known as pertussis — in different parts of the county.
Thirty students at the private Harvard-Westlake School have recently fallen ill with whooping cough, part of a larger outbreak across Los Angeles County that officials are struggling to contain.
“The number of reported clusters of pertussis cases has risen in 11- to 18-year-olds who share classrooms, carpools/transportation, or extracurricular activities,” the Feb. 19 advisory said. School administrators also began sending sick students home until a doctor could say the child had been treated for pertussis or tested negative for it, he said.
