13 July 2016 - Health campaigners say they are "hugely dismayed" that the meningitis B vaccine will not be extended to all children in the UK under the age of two.

It was introduced across the UK last year for babies aged up to 12 months.

But experts from the Joint Committee on Vaccination and Immunisation (JCVI) said there was not enough of the vaccine for a catch-up programme.

A petition calling for older children to be vaccinated was signed by more than 800,000 people earlier this year.
