I was exposed to a person for about half an hour in a closed room yesterday, today they're in the hospital with Meningitis.
I have a really weak immune system.
What do I do other than load up on ColdFX?

To put your mind at ease, call a doctor and explain. Chances are you'll be fine. But if you do happen to have it, catching it early is the best thing you can do. Meningitis is serious and can be fatal.
If you feel you really are at risk, get yourself checked.
Good luck. [ thelaura's advice column | Ask thelaura A Question ]

Meningitis is something you don't want to catch and
if you do get it the earlier its diagnosed the better off you will be. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
