Example from Holland: Invitation for vaccination against meningococcal disease

Having an injection is not something most of us would choose to do. There has to be a good reason for this. And there is! For the last 3 years an increasing number of people have become ill due to meningococcal bacteria. This is a dangerous and infectious bacteria that is easily spread by coughing, sneezing and kissing.

Luckily, you can protect yourself and others by being vaccinated with a simple injection. You are receiving this invitation because between 1 May and 31 December this year you will be aged 14.
