Chickenpox

Meningococcal disease is a rare, but potentially devastating infection. It is caused by the bacteria Neisseria Meningitidis of which there are 6 disease-causing strains called serogroups (A, B, C, W, Y and X).

Invasive disease is a rare but serious outcome usually presenting as septicaemia (blood poisoning) or meningitis (infection of the lining of the brain). Following several large outbreaks associated with the pilgrimage to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia all those travelling for the Hajj or Umrah are currently required to show proof of vaccination with a quadrivalent vaccine (protecting against the A, C, W and Y serogroups) in order to obtain a visa.

A single dose can be given to individuals aged 1 year and above.

Travel vaccinations are generally safe and well-tolerated. However, like any medication, some individuals may experience side effects. Our travel health pharmacist can discuss potential side effects and precautions with you.

If you have a medical condition or are taking medications, inform our travel health pharmacist during your consultation. They can help determine the appropriateness of specific vaccines and provide personalized recommendations.
