Have you gotten a shot at the doctor's office recently? In the 1920s, about six thousand children a year were dying of pertussis, or whooping cough. Grace Eldering and Pearl Kendrick began to study of the disease, and their research eventually led to a reliable vaccine. Learn how their combined efforts helped to treat and eventually prevent a deadly disease that mostly affected children, as well as providing a model for how to approach public health concerns.
