There is a severe lack of information and transparency regarding meningitis B.
There is a widespread misconception that a child is adequately protected if they receive their school-scheduled vaccinations in grade 7.
In truth, the meningitis vaccine provided by Public Health does not protect against the deadliest strain, meningitis B.
Getting vaccinations that cover you against all types of meningitis is the best way to protect yourself and your loved ones.
Help us protect those who are vulnerable and encourage meningitis B vaccinations.

Meningitis B is the deadliest strain of meningitis.
It can strike without warning, and early symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed as the flu.
These symptoms might occur suddenly or gradually over time, and they often appear 3-7 days after exposure.
Meningitis B can kill in a matter of hours or cause permanent complications, including brain damage, hearing loss, learning disabilities or limb amputations.

Spread
Instagram/Facebook:
There are five different bacterial strains of meningitis named A, B, C, Y and W.
The bacteria is easy to spread from person to person and is transmitted through saliva.
Sharing anything that comes in contact with saliva, being in close quarters, being sneezed or coughed upon, and kissing can lead to meningitis.
