World Meningitis Day is on April 24th. It's a day when people around the world help others learn about meningitis, a disease that can make you very sick by infecting the brain and spinal cord. The day aims to teach everyone how to spot the signs of meningitis early, like bad headaches, fever, and neck stiffness, so they can get help fast. It also reminds people about the importance of vaccines, which are like superhero shields that protect us from getting sick. By spreading awareness, we can help keep everyone safe and healthy.
