Year 10 students are offered vaccination against:

meningococcal ACWY strains: 1 dose
meningococcal B strain: 2 doses.

This age group requires this vaccination because:

some of the highest rates of meningococcal occur among 15 - 19 year olds and this age group can transmit the meningococcal bacteria to people who are at increased risk of infection, including young children
the vaccine protects young people and reduces risks for the community as a whole by decreasing the proportion of people carrying the bacteria in their nose and throat.

Should you require further information or assistance, please contact the Ozcare School Immunisation Support Team on 3482 1997 or email sip.northlakes@ozcare.org.au.
