Is It Safe To Wait For Few Days Before Receiving The Meningitis Injection?
I need a meningitis vaccination before I m allowed to move into my dorm. However, when I went to receive it at the CVS minute clinic, I was told because I had received my second dose of the VARIVAX only three days ago and I was mounting a response, I would not be able to receive the meningitis vaccination safely until after twenty-eight days. The move in date is two weeks before I can safely receive the meningitis vaccination, and the school has informed me that they would not make any exceptions. Is it absolutely necessary that I wait twenty eight days before receiving the meningitis vaccination?
