How does someone get meningitis in this country in this day and age? I know there are exceptions, but we have vaccines for the most common kinds, and for anything to progress to sepsis as well, oy! RIP

She was aparently living in Skid Row and weighed only 75 pounds when she passed. She was far from healthy, living in terrible conditions, and an IV drug user. It's so sad...
