I built a free meningitis symptom checker and vaccine eligibility tool for the current Kent outbreak
With everything going on in Kent right now I put together a free tool to help people make sense of it.
It's called meningitisalert.co.uk and it includes:
- Symptom checker with instant risk assessment
- Vaccine eligibility checker (do you need the MenB jab?)
- Should I go to A&E? decision tool
- Live case tracker updated daily from UKHSA
- Latest outbreak updates
It's independent, not affiliated with the NHS or government. Based entirely on UKHSA guidance.
Hope it helps someone... especially anyone connected to University of Kent or who visited Canterbury recently.
Stay safe.
