North Central Public Health District is advising parents of University of Oregon students who are coming home for spring break that there is no supply of Meningitis B vaccine at clinics or pharmacies in Wasco, Sherman, or Gilliam counties. According to the district, if a U of O student is returning and was not vaccinated while at the school, they recommend calling ahead to a local pharmacy. If the vaccine is not in stock, it can be ordered within a day or so. Five U of O freshmen have contracted type B meningococcal disease since mid-January, resulting in one death. The Oregon Health Authority has recommended vaccination as the best way to eradicate the illness, and students were encouraged to obtain vaccination in Eugene.
