A Victim of Whooping Cough At Rest In the Holy Hope Catholic Cemetery In Tucson, Arizona
This is a photograph that I took of the headstone marking the grave of Francisca Altamirano in the Holy Hope Catholic Cemetery in the city of Tucson, Arizona.
Francisca was born in Prescott, Arizona on November 22, 1912 to Ramon Altamirano and Carmen Montano. Her father was born in Mexico and her mother was born in Tucson. The Altamirano family lived in the town of Laguna, seven miles north of Tucson. It was here that Francisca contracted Whooping Cough. She passed away at her home on June 19, 1916 after being ill for 18 days; she was three years old.
Whooping Cough
Dr. Andrew Terranella (EIS, 2010) processes blood samples during a December, 2010, epi-aid investigation of whooping cough in central Ohio. Laboratory findings provided critical insight during this investigation. The investigation team drew blood samples in unconventional settings, including residences and places of work, requiring special considerations to minimize occupational risks.
