Just as a side note, coffee and water used to be noncount nouns, but have since switched over to count nouns.

I think it'd be more precise to say that the words have new senses where they are count-nouns. So they're both.

Bibi Reber, whose children attend the Waldorf-inspired Greenwood School in Mill Valley, had her children vaccinated only for what she sees as the deadliest diseases. Greenwood has a 79 percent opt-out rate among its kindergartners.

"I don't think dirt or getting sick makes you a weak person; your immune system needs to work with things," said Reber, whose children attend the Greenwood School in the San Francisco Bay area town of Mill Valley. "We certainly don't want to go back to having polio, but on the other hand, I don't think we need to eradicate all the childhood diseases

Public health officials say that, regardless of why parents choose not to vaccinate their children, the result is the same: an increased risk of an outbreak of whooping cough or other communicable diseases.

Greenwood School offers a dynamic education that recognizes the developmental phases of childhood and fosters the emerging capacities of each child. And whooping cough.

Enlivened education is filled with vitality, enthusiasm and spirit of imagination. And whooping cough.

I suppose it's nice that the tradition of the old-fashioned childhood diseases will be kept alive forevermore by artisanal practitioners of suffering and debility. You wouldn't want to see the classic clinical syndromes of mumps or diphtheria vanish entirely under the tide of soulless modernization and health, like an old theatre with gilded painted ceilings torn down to build another condo building and another Starbucks.

We need a Society for the Preservation of Historic Diseases. We can outfit the sick children in britches and pinafores, have their nurses wear the old fashioned white caps with red crosses, hire only bearded doctors in suspenders who don't wash their hands. It'll be a mark of culture and sophistication to have an outbreak of whooping cough in your community, like having a soda fountain that makes its own secret cola recipe or a an old-time barber shop where they use straight razors.

Of course true hipsters will roll their eyes at these increasingly corporatized North American diseases, making a point of exposing their little darlings to dengue or yellow fever instead, or at least have them contract a nagging case of neurocysticercosis.

Our artisanal disease sommeliers have the training and experience necessary to recommend the infection that's right for your child. Nothing disfiguring or damaging to their long term intellectual or reproductive abilities, don't worry, just a quick sprint around the block for little Jethro's immune system and the proud feeling for the family that he's now entwined in humanity's endless struggle with death and decay. Our expert photographers will capture professionally lit medium format photographs of little Ruby's febrile exanthem and upload them to the social media platform of your choice -- with your permission, of course.
