Living in close quarters (dormitories, apartments, etc.) with a person who is carrying N. meningitidis substantially increases the risk of a healthy person coming down with meningococcal meningitis.
According to doctors from trusted Lynnwood urgent care centers and other health experts, meningococcal meningitis has an incubation period of two to ten days after exposure to N. meningitides. After the incubation period, symptoms will begin to manifest themselves. Typically, these include the sudden onset of a high fever, neck stiffness, severe headaches, nausea, confusion, lethargy, and oversensitivity to light.
