In the U.K. the meningococcal B vaccine forms part of our childhood vaccine schedule, however this has only been in the last decade. This means that meningococcal B meningitis outbreaks in the vulnerable population are likely to occur over the next few years, until those babies vaccinated in 2015 reach adolescence and then reach university age in 2033. If there is an outbreak then at risk populations are offered the vaccine. We have vaccinated babies against Meningitis A,C,W and Y for several years.
