At present, UK guidance confirms no national recommendation to offer the MenB vaccine outside the routine NHS schedule. See Government website for up to date information.

Meningitis is spread through prolonged, close contact & it’s important to be aware of the symptoms, which may include fever, headache, neck stiffness, sensitivity to light, & in some cases a rash.

If you are concerned, please seek urgent medical advice.

Get urgent medical attention (call 111 or go to A&E) if:
• Symptoms appear suddenly and worsen
• Someone is hard to wake, confused, or very unwell
• You suspect meningitis or sepsis at all
