Whooping Cough Information
Parents and schools have recently received a letter from the UK Health Security Agency in the East Midlands about whooping cough (pertussis).
The Lincolnshire Health Protection this week confirmed that it had NOT yet seen an increase in cases of whooping cough in the county in 2024.
If your child has prolonged bouts of coughing, retching after cough, ‘whooping’ on breathing in or bad rib pain, please see the following advice:

We operate a 'Total Triage' - or 'talk before you walk' - system which allows for longer face-to-face appointments for those with complex needs, and all but abolished waits to be seen by a GP. We strive to balance the values of pre-Covid General Practice – of patient and family-centred care - with the convenience and efficiency of remote consulting when it is safe and appropriate.
