WATERLOO, Ontario, April 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) This World Meningitis Day (April 24
th), Meningitis Foundation Canada (MFC) is raising awareness of this ‘indiscriminate killer disease’ and calling on all Canadian provincial and territorial policymakers to act to #DefeatMeningitis by 2030.
“This call aligns with the newly ratified ‘Global Roadmap to Defeat Meningitis by 2030’,” said MFC spokesperson, Michael Redfearn. The newly ratified ‘Global Roadmap to Defeat Meningitis’ is led by a WHO-multi-organization partnership.
Understandably, countries worldwide are focused on COVID-19. Tragically, the pandemic also threatens to bring back diseases that we can largely prevent, like meningitis. The pandemic has caused disruptions in immunization services and once many people are vaccinated and able to gather again, the number of cases of infectious diseases like meningitis are expected to rise.
