ARCHIVED - Guidelines for the Prevention and Control of Meningococcal Disease

 

1.0 Introduction

Guidelines for the control of meningococcal disease were last published in 1994, following a 1993 Canadian Consensus Conference on Meningococcal Disease(1).

These revised guidelines provide updated case definitions and public health control measures, taking into account new advances in diagnostic and vaccine technology.
