Londonderry High School Teacher Diagnosed with Meningitis

WMUR is reporting that a Londonderry High School faculty member has been diagnosed with viral meningitis – the second school employee to be diagnosed with the same strain this school year.

The television station said parents have been notified, and there is no public health threat. In early October, another faculty member at the school was also diagnosed with viral meningitis.

Viral meningitis can be caused by any number of viruses. Common symptoms include high fever, severe headache, and stiff neck. Other symptoms include nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, rash, confusion, or sleepiness. These symptoms may develop over several hours or may take one to two days.
