How is Meningitis B transmitted?

Transmission requires close, prolonged contact such as coughing, sneezing or kissing.

Sharing drinks and vapes can also spread infection.

The bacteria that causes meningococcal disease is often carried harmlessly in the nose and throat, with only around 10% of carriers ever becoming ill.

In adolescents and young adults, carriage can be higher, with large UK studies reporting rates of 7%-18%, depending on the year and setting.

The Meningitis B vaccine is available on the NHS free of charge subject to eligibility.
