		</div><p>Nigeria&#8217;s meningitis outbreak has killed at least 745 people, health officials said. The Nigeria Centre for Disease Control said 8,057 suspected meningitis cases have been reported.</p>
<p>Most have been located in the northern states of Zamfara, Katsina, Kebbi, Niger and Sokoto since the disease surfaced in December. The federal government has kicked off a nationwide vaccination campaign for millions of people, though there is a worldwide shortage for the strain, which inflames the spinal cord and brain.</p>
<p>Most of the victims have been children. A meningitis epidemic killed 1,100 people and infected more than 10,000 in Nigeria and neighbouring Niger in 2015.</p>
<p>There are fears that this outbreak could again spread across the border.</p>
