The "Meningitis vaccine"

Please have your children vaccinated against Niseria Meningiditis aka meningococcus.  I recently met Rayna DuBose.  She is an amazing girl who almost died from the disease.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JKg05gesGi4  but realize that her disease could have been prevented.  Please listen to her message.  The vaccine has no serious risks but the disease kills one out of 5 affected individuals and the rest are left like Rayna.
