Meningoccal B vaccine

Meningoccal B vaccine is a meningitis vaccine that protects against Neisseria meningitidis type B.[1] It is available as Bexsero (GlaxoSmithKline) and Trumenba (Pfizer).[2]

Of countries that have authorised MenB vaccines, not all have included it in a national vaccination policy.[3] Where available, the number of doses and the recommended schedule varies widely.[3] Unlike the MenACWY vaccine, MenB vaccination is not included in current immunization strategies for individuals entering the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for Hajj and Umrah.[3]
