[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have two college students. No one has every checked vaccine records. They attend college in PA. Why would it matter? Have you checked your child's high school rates?[/quote]

They really should.  Meningitis used to kill a lot of college students—it’s so great that there is a vaccine for it now.  Even with measles — if you have congregate living with hundreds of kids in dorms, even if they are all vaccinated a couple might  get sick.  If you have a bunch unvaccinated, it will spread like wildfire.  They should at least mandate it for people living in dorms.  [/quote]

Um, I think it’s called Persongitis now. [/quote]

What is wrong with you? People can die or get permanent brain damage from meningitis. It's not a joke.

I hope that your child benefits from the good choices of others and avoids illness, quarantine, dorm closure, and all the other bad outcomes of a meningitis outbreak. [/quote]
