Took 7 year old in to be tested for whooping cough he displayed all symptoms related to whooping cough request was ignored child was tested for strep instead. With warnings of whooping cough from mesa county health department on the local news and the child suffering from the 8 listed symptoms of whooping cough I find this treatment to be irresponsible and extremely unprofessional lack of regard for the child's well being as well as blaten disregard for the community and public safety.
