Meningitis prevention – Lecture

Listen to the episode

Description

In this Healthed lecture, Prof Marshall, explains why there aren’t many diseases that cause as much fear among both the general public and medical practitioners as meningitis. With good reason. Few illnesses can cause such devastation in such a short time frame. Fortunately, vaccines are reducing the incidence of meningitis. In this presentation, Prof Marshall will outline the current state of play in terms of which meningitis vaccines are available, what’s on the free list and what’s not, and how we can promote optimal protection.

This educational activity was developed by Healthed at the request of and with funding from GSK.
