INTRODUCTION TO MENINGITIS
The incidence of meningitis has increased in recent years due to the increase in the number of people with weakened immune systems. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, there was a 44% increase in the number of cases of meningitis from 2002 to 2012. This increase may be partially due to the increased use of antibiotics and increased travel. Meningitis can be a very serious disease and can lead to death if not treated quickly. Meningitis is caused by a bacterial infection of the meninges, the membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord. The most common type of meningitis is caused by the bacteria Neisseria meningitides, which is found in the respiratory tract. Other types of meningitis can be caused by viruses, such as meningococcal meningitis. Symptoms of meningitis can vary, but they usually include fever, headache, neck stiffness, and nausea. If meningitis is not treated, it can spread to the brain and cause serious complications, including coma, seizures, and death. If you are experiencing any of the following symptoms, you should seek medical attention: fever above 100 F (38 C), severe headache, vomiting, drowsiness, decreased level of consciousness, or paralysis. If you think you may have meningitis, you should visit your doctor immediately.
