That is precisely why I started this thread. Oh, ignorance is bliss. Damn you PBS. Damn you!

Well, you all have convinced me to get my shot. I'm going to find out right away how I can get it and how much it costs. What really got me is the sheer number of people on TFP alone that have been directly affected by meningitis. I thought it was less widespread, but I was clearly mistaken. Thanks everyone.
