What Causes Meningitis In A Baby?
My brothers girlfriend uses meth-amphetamine. Their baby was just admitted to the hospital for meningitis. We dont know yet if viral or bacterial. I know meningitis is associated with meth use. Could she or one of her "friends" have given the baby meningitis?

meningitis is not related to Meth use. Meningitis in children offers due to infection most probably viral or bacterial. It is not related to drugs used by any close relative or friend. Take care.
