Mississippi County Health Department - Ask2BSure About Meningitis B Vaccination

326

Do you know if your teen or young adult has received both types of meningitis vaccinations (one for groups A,C,W,Y and another for B)? 

Hint: they could be missing meningitis B vaccination.

Meningitis is an uncommon, but potentially serious illness that can cause life-threatening complications or even death. Recent CDC data shows that 7 out of 10 17-year-olds did not receive even one dose of meningitis B vaccination in 2020. 

Help us raise awareness among parents and empower them to start the conversation with their child’s doctor and #Ask2Bsure about meningitis B vaccination.
