I believe the MenB vaccine is very affective for MenW |

Although not defending drug companies, they spend millions (billions?) on R&D. |

My son had Meningitis when he was 10 days old (born 6 weeks premature) and now 24 years later I live on a daily basis with the consequences. |

Drug manufacturers are following the example of recent UKIP financial shenanigans - think of a figure & then double it. 'Repatriate' whenever & wherever possible. |

Perhaps they should add up the cost of NOT providing the vaccine. The local case of Harmonie-Rose is, I'm sure, replicated across the country - how much will this little girl need over the years to live a normal life? |

I myself have thought that there are far to many admin staff in the NHS put the money to better use & save lives . |

On Radio 4 this morning a consultant from St Mary's London quoted a single dose as £100 and 3 doses are needed for the full cover |

years ago I organised a summer fete for our local psychiatric hospital where I worked - I wrote to every drug company which supplied drugs to our hospital asking if they were able to make a donation - there were dozens of companies - just one responded positively, the rest never replied or said they were unable to help |

..or they could 'pull in' all the tax evaders, and make life difficult for tax avoiders, then they'd have plenty of money to fund the NHS. :-D |

a small price to pay for the life of a child - all the NHS need to do is to cut some of the layers of administrators - most of whom have never ever come across a patient in the flesh - to many chiefs and not enough Indians |

There is now an effective vaccine for meningitis B. The disease is fatal for 10% of those who contract it and can leave survivors with a poor prognosis. |
