Should we be worried about the current meningitis outbreak?? I don't know if it's fake news, but I saw somewhere that there would be talks of a lockdown, and jab roll out...COVID 2.0??

Its spread by saliva contact, kissing, sharing drinks / vapes. You’re not going to catch it easily.

Im not worried and I worry about everything! There are antibiotics available and a jab so no, I very much doubt there would be a lock down
