Meningitis Outbreak Threatens Upstate Children
Children in Upstate South Carolina are increasingly affected by meningitis, which can be deadly or cause severe health issues. Health officials emphasize the importance of vaccination and good hygiene practices to prevent the spread, especially as vaccination rates decline. Enterovirus, which has no vaccine, is also prevalent and can cause serious illness, highlighting the need for preventive measures like handwashing and not sharing personal items.
