    Author: Williams MM, Sen K, Weigand MR, Skoff TH, Cunningham VA, Halse TA, Tondella ML, CDC Pertussis Working Group.
    Journal: Emerg Infect Dis; 2016 Feb; 22(2):319-322. PubMed ID: 26812174.
    Abstract:
    A Bordetella pertussis strain lacking 2 acellular vaccine immunogens, pertussis toxin and pertactin, was isolated from an unvaccinated infant in New York State in 2013. Comparison with a French strain that was pertussis toxin-deficient, pertactin wild-type showed that the strains carry the same 28-kb deletion in similar genomes.
