BMJ - Universal Meningitis Vaccination

"Re-evaluating cost effectiveness of universal meningitis vaccination (Bexsero) in England: modelling study"

"Conclusions Routine infant vaccination is the most effective short term strategy and could be cost effective with a low vaccine price. Critically, if the vaccine reduces carriage acquisition in teenagers, the combination of infant and adolescent vaccination could result in substantial long term reductions in cases and be cost effective with competitive vaccine pricing."
