My next door neighbours kids recently had whooping cough a couple of months ago and they posted about it on the towns facebook group (this is where official announcements are posted because the internet IS Facebook to many here). They invited other parents to bring their kids over for playdates so they could catch whooping cough so they could be immune afterwards.
I don’t know how many people actually showed up but there were over 20 likes on the post and several comments expressing interest.
