Gene links to meningitis infection.

Gene links to meningitis infection.

Meningitis (brain sheet) infection is a very serious problem. According to the studies in UK, researchers found that the disease seems involved in the immune response to patient’s family. In the study, scientists found a clear difference in a small set of gene known to be involved in the immune system. However, this is unclear that meningitis runs in patient’s family. Therefore, scientists are researching for more evidence to prove this theory.

Personally, this is a very serious problem that is able to happen in everybody’s brain. This might cause serious illness, so everybody should be aware of this disease. From the in formation in Wiki. Said that when this disease occurs in the person. He or she must get the treatment immediately by special antibiotic “Empiric antibiotics” However, now scientist invented the vaccine to deal with this disease which helps your immune system to fight with those bacteria.
