Sign the online Meningitis B petition

Post by Rodney »

Sign the online Meningitis B petition

There is a campaign to get all children vaccinated against this disease.
It has now become the most signed petition in parliamentary history.
Thousands of kids get it each year and many hundreds die from Meningitis B.
If the vaccine saves just one child it would be worth it but it will save thousands from an attack of Meningitis B.
Come on and sign the petition - https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/108072

I have signed the petition, thanks for the link.
Something has to be done and it shouldn't revolve around money.
I think this pressure will make the government think again.

The children's lives are the most important thing.
We have the ability to vaccinate kids against Meningitis B so just do it.
The cost should never be an issue.
