Monday, April 25 is World Meningitis Day.
Meningitis affects thousands of people around the world, but vaccines have helped lower that number in recent years. If your child has not had the vaccine, experts say today is a good day to schedule an appointment.
Dr. Jean Peters-Do with Texas MedClinic spoke to KVUE about meningitis infections and how dangerous they are.
Texas MedClinic has two locations in Austin. Both clinics are open seven days a week from 8 a.m. to 11 p.m.
