…it is being reported as quite baffling to experts as to how quickly it’s spread and spreading in that particular area, what circumstances are so specific and so exceptional etc as this is such an unprecedented outbreak…although the nightclub environment gave for close contact, there were no apparent exceptional circumstances of behaviours that don’t happen regularly with students and the close contact associated with contracting the virus is generally a prolonged one of living together etc….its worrying as to why in this particular area, there seems more vulnerability…

I'm not actually getting this concept of people sharing vapes. Who wants to share the germs in someone else's mouth? Also, has this happened because the government banned disposable vapes?

The other thing is, i thought the bacteria lived in 20% of the population's nasal passages and they remain unbothered throughout their lives.

The French not only allow illegal migrants to pour through, but they also deliberately send diseases here?

Lovely neighbours.

and its up to 50% in the young. To me, it looks like the bacteria has mutated and is able to break through normal protections. In which case we can expect 20%+ of the population to get it

It has been reported
Many parents of youths
They are now buying the Vaccine:
Sold as two parts

[Privately purchasing two doses of the Meningitis B (Bexsero)
vaccine typically costs around £220 on the UK high street,
with prices varying by provider]

How likely is it to spread to the Midlands?

The vaccine supply is limited. Leave it for the group most at risk.

Its not really spread anywhere. Someone who caught it in Kent went to London and they were diagnosed there. You could only consider this as "spread" if that person went on to infect people in London.

i think we need to see what happens over the next few weeks. If all the students get vaccinated in the next week or so, it's got nowhere to go and it will just fizzle out.

Of Course,

But the problem is
Some parents are buying it legally at the chemists


So Supply could go down.

Its up to parents to decide what is best for their kids

Many children over 11year old
never received this important Vaccine

One Young Lady Sophie (one of the two dead)
was dead within 24 hours of it.

Shocking.
