The Czech authorities reported that there were 28 registered cases of whooping cough in the first week of January. That figure now stands at 3,084 - a number not seen since 1963.
According to Czech Health Minister Vlastimil Válek, the surge is likely attributable to a mix of a resurgence in respiratory diseases as society shifts away from stringent Covid measures, and incomplete immunization among children.
