If my boyfriend has had an injection to avoid meningitis can he still bring the germ home and pass it on to me? There's someone from his university who's got it I don't want it but I'm so scared of injections I can't explain I know I need to be safe than sorry I just can't come round to agree to do it because last time I had one the nurse fucked it up when I was 14 and I've sworn blind I would never have one again
