Meningitis

Meningitis

In the UK from September 2015 babies born on or after 1 July 2015 are being offered the MenB (meningococcal group B) vaccine as part of the routine immunisation schedule and babies born on or after 1 May are being offered the vaccine as part of a one off catch-up campaign.

The vaccine can be purchased privately in the UK and Ireland, so people who are not currently eligible for the vaccine on the NHS can get it if they pay for it.

Please contact the travel clinic for information about current availability of vaccine, price and schedule of vaccination.
