Meningitis Outbreak – Kent

We are currently receiving enquiries regarding the reported meningococcal (MenB) outbreak in Kent.

Public health authorities are managing this situation. Please note that MenB vaccine is not routinely provided on the NHS for adults outside of specific eligibility groups and we are therefore unable to offer MenB vaccination at the practice for this situation.

If you develop symptoms suggestive of meningitis such as a fever, headache, neck stiffness, sensitivity to light vomiting or a rash please seek urgent medical advice.

Thank you
