Meningitis devours 1,670 Africans just in two months: UN

meningitis in africa 64Just two months and nearly 16,000 cases of meningitis, including 1,670 deaths, in Africa. This dreary revelation by the World Health Organization (WHO) has come questioning the health situation in these countries.

However, WHO with the help of other organizations has come forward supporting a vaccination campaign in these four countries so that spread of this outbreak could be prevented further. As a result, about 1.5 million people in the four affected countries have been targeted in the mass vaccination campaign.

Quite a pity, that somewhere health experts are successfully digging out new methods to subjugate meningitis while some places (above mentioned four countries) are still serving as the den of meningitis.
