The Government has expanded the vaccination programme against the deadly meningitis B outbreak as the number of known and suspected infections climbed to 27.
Health Secretary Wes Streeting announced that more students in Kent and anyone who attended the nightclub at the centre of the outbreak will also be eligible for jabs.
Today he visited the University of Kent, which one of the 2 students who died attended, and insisted the risk to the wider public is "extremely low".
