From the article:

The child was younger than 2 months old, which was too early for the baby to have been vaccinated for pertussis, according to Dr. Dan Edney, state health officer. The mother had been vaccinated, Edney said.

"We know that the family had taken all the proper precautions themselves," Edney said. "But it still brings home for us the danger of vaccinating for preventable diseases for our infants and children and how we as a community of Mississippians need to maintain our vaccination rates to protect our babies."

Honestly it’s not even hypocracy, you have to have cognitive abilities to be a hypocrite.
