Some studies have shown a link between vaccination of infants with whole cell inactivated pertussis vaccine and the later development of asthma and atopy. 1 2 A randomised controlled trial disagreed with these findings, but follow up was done until only 30 months of age. 3 Our previous report of the lack of an association between pertussis vaccination and wheezing disorders was based on outcomes in early childhood. 4 In this study we have examined the association between pertussis vaccination in infancy and asthma or atopy by age 7.5 years in a large, population based birth cohort.
