💨 Abstract
In Kent, meningitis B vaccinations are being extended to pupils following an outbreak that resulted in two deaths among 18-21-year-olds. The UK Health Security Agency has confirmed 20 cases, with three under investigation. Over 10,600 people have been vaccinated so far. The outbreak has prompted experts to highlight symptoms, including photophobia (sensitivity to light), which can indicate meningitis.
