You will be offered the 4CMenB vaccine. This vaccine was first introduced to help protect against meningitis (an infection in the brain and spinal cord) and septicaemia (blood poisoning).
The bacteria that cause some types of meningitis are similar to the bacteria that cause gonorrhoea. Research shows that the 4CMenB vaccine can also help protect against gonorrhoea. That is why you are being offered this vaccine – to reduce your chance of getting gonorrhoea.
