The UKHSA said one of the cases has been confirmed as Meningitis B (MenB) but that it is awaiting further results on the other two.
“Anyone can get meningitis, and around 300 to 400 cases of meningococcal disease are diagnosed in England every year,” Mearkle added.
“It’s most common in babies, young children, teenagers, and young adults.
“It needs to be treated quickly so it is important to know the signs and symptoms. They can appear in any order and may not all be present, so seek rapid medical attention if there is ever any concern.”
