Further information regarding Meningitis B
Meningococcal (MenB) vaccination – information for students:
NHS England has asked GP practices to provide the MenB vaccine to a small number of students linked to the meningococcal outbreak in Canterbury, Kent, if they have returned home.
Whilst we understand this may be a worrying time, it is clear that is it going to be unlikely for many of our local residents to need vaccination under the current criteria that has been set for GP practices nationally.
ONLY if you have been advised that you are eligible and are currently living locally, please contact reception and inform them that your request relates to the MenB vaccination that is linked to the Canterbury outbreak.
If you have been advised that you are eligible, it is likely you will have been contacted by your university, school, or public health officials because you:
• live in specific halls of residence in Canterbury
• attended certain venues in Canterbury between 5–16 March, or
• have been identified as a close contact of a confirmed case
If you have not been contacted directly, you DO NOT need to contact the practice about vaccination.

You may have heard about a recent outbreak of Meningitis B down in Kent, we have been advised that unless you have been in contact with someone affected there is no current need for vaccination. The Men B vaccination was rolled out in the childhood immunisations in 2015 so children born after this time will have already been vaccinated. You can check your records on the NHS app.
Please do not contact the surgery to check. Thank you for your cooperation
