Original Note:
False The report states "Unvaccinated children are more likely to contract pertussis and have more severe disease than those who are fully vaccinated" As >95% are vaccinated, the rate of contraction is lower in the vaccinated (see base rate fallacy). https://cdc.gov/pertussis/downloads/pertuss-surv-report-2016.pdf
