Alice Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Here's a recent thread about it. http://www.welltrainedmind.com/forums/showthread.php?t=89514&highlight=meningococcal+vaccine It is required by almost all colleges now. I highly recommend it for those going to college or living in a dorm. We highly recommend it for high school students as well as the risk goes up during that age group. It's a nasty, deadly disease. The risk is highest when in close quarters (dorms) and around here the high schools are as crowded as many colleges...another reason to get it then.
