People are being warned to protect themselves as cases are expected to rise
People have been warned to protect themselves aganist a potentially ‘fatal’ infection. Meningitis can cause life-threatening sepsis and result in permanent damage to the brain or nerves. It can affect anyone, but is most common in babies, young children, teenagers and young adults. Septicaemia, also known as blood poisoning, is often a result of another infection in the body. Bacteria from that infection can enter the bloodstream and spread throughout the body.
In September 2019, boys became eligible for the HPV vaccine in schools. So while all young women should be up to date with the following three vaccines ahead of starting university, for young men depending on their age, some may not have been eligible for HPV. If students have not yet had their vaccines, they should arrange to have the missed vaccines as soon as possible with their local GP practice. If that’s not possible, vaccination should be taken up as soon as they start university.
