Teenagers from 15 should be given free MenB vaccine, say UK experts

Government advisers have recommended that all teenagers should be offered a vaccine on the NHS to protect against meningitis B at approximately 15 years of age. These experts are urging the government to consider the routine introduction of MenB jabs for people of secondary school age. The primary objective of this recommendation is to ensure that teenagers are better protected against the disease through the provision of free vaccinations via the national health service.
