I hope your bother gets wells soon and you can dodge that bullet.
I had a whooping cough booster when I got my tetanus shot several years ago. Mainly because there was an outbreak then, and now as a matter of fact, from missionaries not vaccinating, going to countries where it's common and bringing it back here. At the time, my nephew was a preemie who had just come home from the hospital and I didn't want to give it to him.
There have been a few vaccines that were recommended and I was like, yep, give it. Including Gardasil for my teenage son, who could one day carry HPV and spread it to women who weren't vaccinated.
