Meningitis B vaccine rollout expanded as six more cases confirmed | BBC News
UK health secretary Wes Streeting has told the BBC that “anyone who was at Club Chemistry in Canterbury from 5 March should come forward for both the antibiotics and the vaccine” as a total of 27 confirmed or suspected cases of meningitis B have been reported after an outbreak of the disease in Kent, UK.
Streeting visited a vaccination centre that has been set up in a sports hall at the University of Kent and told the BBC that that the risk of meningitis across the country “is extremely low” but has spread at an extent not seen before.
More than 900 people have been vaccinated so far as part of the existing targeted programme, which is focused on students staying on the campus.

Houses, cars, and a bus were set on fire in Belfast last night in a night of violence that followed a knife attack on Monday.
The suspect, a 30-year-old Sudanese man who claimed asylum in the UK, is in court later.
In one area, hundreds of masked men carrying bottles and bricks set bins on fire and shouted “foreigners out”, our reporter says.
Northern Ireland’s First Minister Michelle O’Neill says “groups of masked men” were “burning families out of their homes” – Chief Constable Jon Boutcher says the violence was a “huge act of self-harm by mindless idiots”.
Prime Minister Keir Starmer has described the chaos in Belfast on Tuesday night as “shocking and completely unacceptable”.

Myanmar’s civil war has claimed almost 100,000 lives.
In 2021 the country’s military seized power in a coup. After losing ground to rebel and ethnic groups, it’s making a renewed push, carrying out the forced-recruitment of tens of thousands of conscripts and employing new drone technology.
The United Nations’ human rights spokesman has condemned the military’s tactics which he’s called brutal and said that civilians are paying a terrible price.
BBC correspondent, Quentin Sommerville and Camera Journalist Darren Conway have spent time with rebel groups.

On 12 June 2025, a London-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashed seconds after taking off from Ahmedabad in western India, killing at least 260 people, including 241 passengers and crew on board.
Investigators have yet to publish their final findings into the cause of the crash.
A preliminary report into the incident from India’s Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau found both of the plane’s fuel switches moved to the “cut-off” position “immediately” after take-off, stopping fuel supply to the engine.
What is not clear however, is what actually caused the crash.
