Meningitis
Just dropping a line to explain why I have temporarily removed your additions to meningitis. In "prevention" you cited rather generic advice from the CDC page that applies to all sorts of infections - which form of meningitis is spread by insect stings? In "risk factors" you again cited the CDC page that duplicates other mentions of crowded living conditions as a risk factor for meningitis. We could theoretically cite the statistics on the rate of meningitis infections in very specific populations (dorm dwellers) but they are quite specific as only available for the USA.

Please let me know what you think, ideally on Talk:Meningitis, so other editors could weigh in as well. In particular, please don't regard this as discouragement to carry on contributing (I see you have just signed up). Let me know if there are any questions. JFW | T@lk  20:26, 9 December 2009 (UTC)
