Reported outbreak of penicillin-resistant invasive Meningitis B linked to the University of Kent

The role of identifying those at risk of contracting Meningitis B falls with UK Health Security Agency public health teams. GP practices will not be expected to identify, triage, or prescribe prophylaxis in response to this type of outbreak.

Be assured: if you're at genuine risk of contracting Meningitis B, you will be contacted directly by the public health teams. If you are not contacted about it, you're very unlikely to need any antibiotics for this outbreak.

Any queries about eligibility for antibiotics should be directed to UKHSA.
