Well it depends on whether the disease is viral meningitis or bacterial meningitis, if Bacterial then no vaccine is needed but immediate iv antibiotics is recommended after more serious symptoms are shown. There are a variety of viral vaccines, the most common virus to attack the meninges are enteroviruses, herpes, mumps, measles and arboviruses, and cause them to inflame, so really there is no one vaccine for meningitis and viral meningitis can not be cured, at least not with today's technology, but there has been work within a company Poly-Technologies International, that has been working on a new nano-technology that may be able to repair the meninges. Their work is extremely experimental and won't be truly test ready for a few years. So the only true way to prevent meningitis in the viral capacity is to stay away from mosquitos, and to keep up with you vaccines.
