The family said the son was starting to feel bad Tuesday (4) was twice attended in the unit ready to work and in a clinic private in Olympia. According to the mother, the doctors did not discover the symptoms of meningitis until after the transfer of the boy to Santa Casa de Barretos (SP).

Fábio Martinez, Acting Mayor of Olímpia, is also a doctor and stated that the procedures followed were not defective. "The service followed the usual standards for a difficult diagnosis," he said.

Meningitis is transmitted when small drops of saliva from the infected person come into contact with the mucous membranes of the nose or mouth of a healthy individual. It can be coughing, sneezing or contact with bus bars, for example. Therefore, overcrowded environments with little air circulation are ideal for contagion and the disease often spreads in winter.

The main symptoms of meningitis are headache, fever and mental confusion. There is not always stiffness in the neck and the test can not be performed by a layman by simply lowering his head; only a doctor can correctly evaluate the image. The "standard" diagnosis is obtained by examining the CSF, which bathes the nervous system. The color of CSF indicates whether the meningitis is caused by a bacterium or a virus.

Meningitis vaccines available in the public system are: 10-valent pneumococcus, C-meningococcal conjugate and pentavalent. In the private network, children are offered a 13-valent pneumococcus, a meningococcus A, C, W, Y and a pentavalent.

The other tips to prevent diseases are: never take an African snail in your hand, wash the leaves well vegetables (put a few drops of sodium hypochlorite in 1 liter of water, and also use running water) and always keep your hands clean.
