WORLD MENINGITIS DAY 2018

ALL YEARS OF WMD

World Meningitis Day 2018

​

The theme for World Meningitis Day 2018 is #AllMeningitisMatters. The campaign will focus on the different causes of meningitis and the vaccines that can help protect against certain strains of bacterial and viral meningitis.

​

The key messages of the 2018 campaign are:

  • Meningitis is a potentially deadly disease that can kill within 24 hours.

  • Bacterial meningitis can be caused by many different types of bacteria.

  • There are safe and effective vaccines that protect against the most common causes of bacterial and viral meningitis.

  • Not all strains of meningitis are vaccine preventable, so being able to recognise the symptoms is crucial.
