Watch ITV Evening News live as students in Kent offered vaccine for deadly meningitis strain

A vaccination programme will take place to immunise students living in University of Kent halls of residence in Canterbury against meningitis B, Wes Streeting has announced. It follows the outbreak of meningitis in the county, where two young people have died and others are in hospital. Some cases have been confirmed as meningitis B, health officials have said, as hundreds of people are being urged to get antibiotics to stem the spread of infection. The UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA) said it would confirm the strain seen in other cases “when we have the full results”. The Health Secretary said most students would not already be vaccinated, and the jabs will begin in the next few days. Also on the programme: -Scotland is holding a historic vote tonight which could see it become the first UK nation to legalise assisted dying. -President Trump has now said the United States no longer "needs" the help of key allies - including the UK and other NATO countries - in the war against Iran. -The Chancellor admitted today that the student loans system is "broken" but said fixing it is not a priority for the Government. -------------------------- For more of the biggest news stories in the UK and around the world, visit the ITV News YouTube channel: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj   • Subscribe to ITV News In Full on YouTube:    / @itvnewsinfull    • Get breaking news and more stories at: http://www.itv.com/news   • Follow ITV News on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itvnews?lang=... • Follow ITV News on Instagram:   /      • Follow ITV News on Facebook:   /      • Follow ITV News on X:   / itvnews
