The mother of an infant who died after doctors failed to timely diagnose her whooping cough has won a $4 million verdict.
A Lancaster County jury on Tuesday found that a pediatric medicine practice group and two doctors failed to diagnose infant Cali Goldstein’s pertussis, despite the mother repeatedly telling doctors she thought the child was suffering from the rare and potentially fatal condition. The award came after more than a week of trial before Lancaster County Court of Common Pleas Judge Jeffrey Wright.
