Meningitis B accounts for the majority of bacterial meningitis cases in the UK, particularly affecting babies under 1 year and teenagers aged 15–24.
The NHS offers Bexsero® free to babies at 8 weeks, 16 weeks and 1 year – but does not offer it to older children, teenagers or adults. University freshers are particularly at risk due to close living in halls of residence. MediPill Pharmacy bridges this gap with private Bexsero® for anyone who needs it.
The ACWY vaccine protects against four strains: A, C, W135 and Y. It is mandatory for Hajj and Umrah pilgrims, and strongly recommended for travel to sub-Saharan Africa’s “meningitis belt.”
In the UK, the NHS provides free MenACWY to teenagers aged 14–18. If you’ve missed yours, or need rapid cover for travel, MediPill can vaccinate you the same day and provide a vaccination certificate for Saudi visa applications.
