ALERT: Measles awareness

Written by admin on Monday 3rd December 2018

The local Public Health team have been notified of two cases of meningococcal infection in the University of Portsmouth. Read on for information and posters to help raise awareness in your pharmacy...


The attached letter provides further information which includes signs and symptoms of meningococcal disease. Although initially intended for distribution in the South East Hampshire CCG and Fareham & Gosport CCG areas, we believe this is useful information to share with all community pharmacies across our locality.

Further information to help awareness of the importance of encouraging people to have their MMR vaccinations are shown below. Please display these in your pharmacy if you are able to.
