Meningococcal disease — what to look for and what to do to save a life.
This 'video in brief' is a summarised guide to recognising and dealing with the symptoms of meningococcal disease (meningitis and septicaemia) for parents, teachers and students who do not have time to watch our more comprehensive programs, Fighting Meningococcal Disease and Don't Catch the Killer.
It was produced for distribution by the meningococcal foundations with the generous assistance of Nanovic Australia, who are working towards an early blood detection test for meningococcal disease.
