New meningitis shot urged for youths nationwide
Freshman Leslie Meigs from Houston highlights the swift danger of meningococcal meningitis as federal officials and the American Academy of Pediatrics urge routine vaccination for 11 to 12 year olds, high school entrants, and college freshman dorm residents. The single shot, about 100 dollars, protects up to a decade but not all teens are recommended to receive it due to supply limits. Meigs survived a severe case after early symptoms and now condemns the experience.
