Why is the Meningitis Vaccine Required for Hajj and Umrah?
Each year, millions of pilgrims from around the world travel to Saudi Arabia for Hajj and Umrah. Due to the crowded conditions, there is a higher risk of infectious diseases spreading—including meningitis.
In the 2000/01 Hajj season, a major outbreak of meningitis occurred, resulting in serious health consequences. As a result, since 2002, the Meningitis ACWY vaccine has been mandatory for all pilgrims attending Hajj or Umrah.
Ensure you’re protected and compliant with travel requirements—book your vaccination early.
