A mudança no calendário nacional de imunização substitui a dose de reforço da vacina meningocócica C, anteriormente aplicada aos 12 meses, pela vacina ACWY. O novo imunizante oferece proteção ampliada contra os sorogrupos A, C, W e Y da bactéria Neisseria meningitidis, uma das principais causadoras da meningite bacteriana.

O esquema vacinal infantil segue com duas doses da vacina meningocócica C aos três e cinco meses de vida, sendo agora complementado com o reforço da vacina ACWY aos 12 meses.

De acordo com a Secretaria de Saúde, crianças que já receberam as duas doses da vacina C e o reforço anterior não precisam ser revacinadas neste momento. Já aquelas que ainda não foram imunizadas aos 12 meses devem ser levadas às unidades de saúde para receber a nova dose. As equipes da rede municipal já foram orientadas e estão preparadas para a nova etapa da campanha.

Sobre a meningite
A meningite é uma inflamação das membranas que envolvem o cérebro e a medula espinhal. A forma bacteriana da doença pode evoluir rapidamente e causar complicações graves, podendo levar à morte. A vacinação é considerada a forma mais eficaz de prevenção.

A população pode consultar os endereços das unidades de saúde, horários de funcionamento e a documentação necessária para vacinação por meio do site oficial da Secretaria Municipal de Saúde:
