From The Gazette, reporter Lindsay Powers:
As many as a dozen students at four Montgomery County schools have
been confirmed or are suspected to have pertussis, also known as
whooping cough, county officials said.
The students are enrolled at Julius West, Cabin John and Robert Frost
middle schools and Cold Spring Elementary School, said Dana Tofig, a
spokesman for Montgomery County Public Schools.
“It is believed that all of the cases are related to students who
attended the same summer camp where they were exposed to pertussis,”
Tofig said in an email Friday.
