ACWY Vax is a meningitis vaccine that contains inactivated extracts of Neisseria meningitides bacteria types A, C, W135 and Y, which are bacteria that cause meningitis. It is known as a quadrivalent vaccine. The vaccine works by provoking the body’s immune response to these bacteria, without causing the disease. The immune system produces different antibodies for each foreign organism it encounters. This establishes a pool of antibodies that helps protect the body from various different diseases.
