Meningitis Outbreak in Kent: Vaccine Clinics Overwhelmed, New Clinics Opening
The University of Kent in Canterbury faces a meningitis outbreak, with twenty-seven cases confirmed or under investigation, including two student deaths. Over one hundred students were turned away from a vaccine clinic due to a five pm deadline, causing frustration and disappointment. Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced expanded vaccinations for club visitors, sixth-formers, and more university students. New clinics will open Friday in Faversham, Ashford, and the university campus, with one running through Saturday. Over eight thousand five hundred antibiotic doses and one thousand six hundred vaccines have been administered.
