Bacterial Meningitis is a serious, potentially deadly disease that can progress extremely fast, so take utmost caution. It is an inflammation of the membranes that surround the brain and spinal cord. The bacteria that cause meningitis can also infect the blood. This disease strikes about 3,000 Americans each year, including 100-125 on college campuses, leading to 5-15 deaths among college students every year. There is a treatment, but those who survive may develop severe health problems or disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-accordions advgb-accordions-ff8ad744-ff8a-4b21-ae59-13b0f27d6807 advgb-accordion-wrapper\" data-collapsed=\"true\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-advgb-accordion-item advgb-accordion-item\" style=\"margin-bottom:15px\"><div class=\"advgb-accordion-header\" style=\"background-color:#4f2d7f;color:#eee;border-style:solid;border-width:1px;border-radius:2px\"><span class=\"advgb-accordion-header-icon accordion-state\"><svg class=\"advgb-icon-closed\" fill=\"#fff\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path opacity=\"0.87\" fill=\"none\" d=\"M24,24H0L0,0l24,0V24z\"><\/path><path d=\"M16.59,8.59L12,13.17L7.41,8.59L6,10l6,6l6-6L16.59,8.59z\"><\/path><\/svg><svg class=\"advgb-icon-opened\" fill=\"#fff\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\"><path opacity=\"0.87\" fill=\"none\" d=\"M24,24H0L0,0l24,0V24z\"><\/path><path d=\"M7.41,15.41L12,10.83l4.59,4.58L18,14l-6-6l-6,6L7.41,15.41z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/span><h3 class=\"advgb-accordion-header-title\" style=\"color:inherit\">What are the symptoms?<\/h3><\/div><div class=\"advgb-accordion-body\" style=\"border-style:solid !important;border-width:1px !important;border-color:undefined !important;border-top:none !important;border-radius:2px !important\">\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>High fever<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Severe headache<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Rash or purple patches on skin<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Vomiting<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Light sensitivity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stiff neck<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Confusion and sleepiness<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Nausea<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Lethargy<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seizures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><br>There may be a rash of tiny, red-purple spots caused by bleeding under the skin.
