Britain on alert over meningitis B outbreak, here are the risk of infection and

England has been on high alert for several days due to an outbreak of meningitis B in its southeast. Several cases have been confirmed, there are still several others in the process of verification as suspects, and 2 young people have lost their lives to this infection.

To curb the spread of the infection among young people, the United Kingdom has opened several vaccination centers for students. Experts emphasize that vaccination remains a key tool, but full protection is only achieved a few weeks after the second dose.

Authorities have indicated that they are actively managing the situation, emphasizing that the risk to the population remains low, although the disease is very serious.

Meningitis is an infection that causes inflammation of the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. As for Meningitis B, it is a bacterial form which tends to be more severe than the viral forms.

The disease spreads through close contact, such as kissing, coughing, or sharing utensils.

The main symptoms that appear suddenly include high fever, chills, neck pain and a characteristic skin rash that does not disappear with pressure, severe headaches, muscle pain.

Authorities warn that these symptoms can be easily confused with the flu or common viruses, especially among students.
