Official Title: South Australian Meningococcal B Vaccine Herd Immunity Study
Brief Summary: To estimate the effect on carriage, approximately 60,000 year 10, 11, and 12 students will be offered 4CMenB vaccination in South Australia through schools over the study period with 50% receiving the vaccine in 2017 and 50% in 2018. In year 10 and 11 students, posterior pharyngeal swabs will be obtained at baseline and 12 months post baseline to estimate the difference in carriage prevalence of all serogroups of N. meningitidis and serogroup B between vaccinated and unvaccinated participants.
