Why Get the Meningitis ACWY Vaccine?

Meningitis can spread quickly and cause severe illness, including septicaemia (blood poisoning) and brain damage. The MenACWY vaccine protects against four major strains (A, C, W, and Y), reducing infection risks.

 

Who Should Get Vaccinated?

  • Teenagers & university students (common in close-contact settings)
  • Travellers visiting high-risk areas (e.g., parts of Africa, Saudi Arabia for Hajj)
  • Individuals with weakened immune systems
  • Anyone needing long-term protection

 

How the Meningitis ACWY Vaccine Works

The vaccine stimulates your immune system to produce antibodies against the bacteria. A single dose provides long-lasting protection, though boosters may be needed for travellers.

 

What to Expect During Your Visit

  • Quick & safe vaccination at our Abbeywood pharmacy
  • Expert advice on side effects (usually mild, like soreness or fever)
  • Travel health consultation (if required)
