Document Summary
Meningococcal meningitis in nigeria: a demographic anthropologist"s perspective. Meningococcal meningitis is a disease that plagues nigeria and many other countries of sub-saharan. Due to its poor economic standing and inadequate access to medical care and treatment, nigeria is not able to fight this disease alone. Our team goal is to identify the causes and risk factors of. Meningococcal meningitis, in order to find a suitable vaccine that will diminish the burden of the disease. The vaccination program our team is inclined on executing in nigeria requires a sufficient source of funding because of the country"s developing status. The focus for our group project is meningococcal meningitis (mm) in nigeria and we"ve decided to emphasize specifically on finding a prevention and vaccination program that suits the conditions of nigeria. Our team is also trying to implement education for healers outside of the health care system.
