How bad is bacterial meningitis?
It depends on what type of meningitis she has it it viral or bacterial if it is viral she has nothing to worry about and she will be fine if it is bacterial then she is in big trouble. It all depends on how quick she got to the hospital for treatment. There is a very high death rate with meningitis and the chances of surviving it with no ill effects is very low there is many different types of bacterial meningitis and some have a 35% death rate with a 35% permanent disability rate like deafness and blindness and there is only a 30% chance of the person being okay. But don’t get too worked up about it until you find out what it is and then you can search the net to find out about that strand…
