SOUTHFIELD, Mich. (WXYZ) — Veronica McNally from West Bloomfield has made it her life's work to talk about vaccines and pertussis, also known as whooping cough.

She told 7 News Detroit that she and her husband decided to do so on the car ride to their daughter Francesca Marie's funeral in 2012. Their 3-month-old died battling whooping cough.


"This disease hit Francesca like a Mack truck," McNally said. "There was no medical intervention that was possible. She had the best care available — there was no medical intervention that was possible that was going to save her life."

McNally bares her soul and shares her heartbreak to advocate for vaccines.

Medical leaders across the state are aware of the concerning trend.

Malosh said it comes as whooping cough vaccines are being administered 3% less than in January of 2020, and as two-thirds of whooping cough patients either never had the vaccine or haven't received it in the past five years.

How much worse do things have to get before we lose developed country status?

We are now talking about banning vaccinations. Is that bad enough?

So RFKs buddy and lawyer is pushing for the elimination of the Polio vaccine. That is such a great idea. It is the beginning of a brave new world where only the wealthy get vaccinated. Public mass vaccinations and mandatory vaccination must be stopped."Poor people got no reason to live".
