After several clusters of meningococcal disease arose among recruits to the British Armed Forces, vaccination against A + C meningococcal disease was introduced for military recruits in 1992. From 1993 onwards, no further clusters of group C infection were reported and incidence of meningococcal disease among trained soldiers fell, but there was no significant reduction in the overall incidence of meningococcal disease in recruits.
在英国武装部队新兵中出现几起脑膜炎球菌病聚集性病例后，1992年开始对新兵接种A + C型脑膜炎球菌病疫苗。从1993年起，未再报告C群感染的聚集性病例，且训练有素的士兵中脑膜炎球菌病的发病率有所下降，但新兵中脑膜炎球菌病的总体发病率没有显著降低。
