Bacterial Meningitis in Hampton

The Union Leader, WMUR and the Boston Globe all reported on a case of Bacterial Meningitis in a Hampton Day Care Center.  This particular case was caused by Meningococcal disease.  As noted in the Union Leader article, notice to parents of the other children and notice to any other adults who came in close contact is the most important first step. 

This article caught my eye because many years ago we handled a case involving a day care center where the center did NOT provide adequate notice to the children.
