Some more information on this matter.   It appears that the lass caught 
pertussis in Nepal and travelled then to Thailand.  She has contacted all the 
people she travelled with plus the restaurants where she ate.  However, it’s 
doubtful she could have contacted all those she was around; people on transport 
for example.  So again, if yore travelling, ensure you’re immunised, and take 
out travel insurance.

A friend’s daughter has just returned from Thailand with pertussis (whooping 
cough).  It took doctors here some weeks to diagnose (they originally thought 
she might have tuberculosis).  So
travelling birders, have all your immunisations and take out travel insurance 
before heading overseas.
