The Meningitis Trust/Meningitis UK has expressed its frustration that a lifesaving vaccine for Meningitis B (Men B) is not yet going to be made available. The Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI), the independent body which advises the Government on vaccinations, says that the current evidence is insufficient to support a recommendation for the introduction of an immunisation programme.
