Whooping Cough Detected At Local High School
The Eden Area School District is warning parents about a case of Whooping Cough.
Two students at the High School have been diagnosed with the bacteria, and it is highly contagious through coughing and sneezing.
Whooping Cough is a bacterial infection that gets into your nose and throat. The symptoms are similar to the average cough, but will turn into "coughing spells" within 7-10 days.
Whooping Cough can be treated with antibiotics if detected early enough.
