10 Whooping Cough Symptoms
Symptom #3: Sneezing
Sneezing is another symptom that commonly occurs in regular colds and most other conditions also associated with a runny nose. Unfortunately, in the case of whooping cough, sneezing is more dangerous because whooping cough is infectious.
Adults are generally courteous enough to cover their faces when sneezing, but children may be more likely to spread the illness by sneezing without covering their faces. This is a serious concern because whooping cough affects children more often than adults.
