Vaccination for Meningococcal Meningitis

Meningitis is a serious infection that affects the protective layer around the brain and spinal cord. It can be caused by bacteria, viruses and fungi.

Meningococcal meningitis is caused by the Neisseria meningitidis bacteria, which holds the potential to cause large epidemics. It can be transmitted from person-to-person through respiratory droplets.

Patients are known to have rapidly progressed to death, often within 24 to 48 hours after the onset of symptoms. Even among those who survive, 1 in 5 may experience lifelong complications such as hearing loss, brain damage, mental disabilities or loss of limbs.

Although meningococcal disease can infect anyone of any age, it has often been observed in children under five years of age, immunocompromised individuals, adolescents and young adults.

An effective way to protect your child against meningococcal disease is VACCINATION.

To know more contact your pediatrician.
Stay Safe and Healthy!
