Five new meningitis cases have been found in Kent, UK, taking the total number of confirmed and suspected cases to 20.
Officials are "proactively managing" the spread of the infection, adding the "general risk is low, even if the disease itself is extremely serious", Health Secretary Wes Streeting told the BBC.
Two people have died - a 21-year-old university student and Juliette, a sixth form pupil.
Susan Hopkins, chief executive of the UK Health Security Agency, said there was an "explosive nature" to the outbreak, while deputy chief medical officer Dr Thomas Waite said it was the quickest growing outbreak he had seen in his career.
A targeted vaccine programme for 5,000 students is being set up at the University of Kent in Canterbury.

The UK terrorism threat level has been raised to "severe", meaning an attack is "highly likely" in the next six months.
Two Jewish men - Shloime Rand, 34, and Moshe Shine, 76 - were stabbed in Golders Green, north London, on Wednesday, in an attack police have declared as a terrorist incident.
The Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre said the increase follows yesterday's stabbings, but "is not solely a result of that attack".

Chancellor Rachel Reeves said in an exclusive interview with the BBC that any Labour leadership contest would "plunge the country into chaos".
It comes as Angela Rayner, seen as a potential challenger to PM Keir Starmer, was cleared by HMRC of wrongdoing over her tax affairs after settling £40,000 in unpaid stamp duty, saying she had been "exonerated" of the accusation she had "deliberately sought to avoid tax".
On Wednesday, allies of Health Secretary Wes Streeting said they expected him to launch a challenge as soon as today.

Keir Starmer said the government had listened carefully to campaigners and that social media was creating an unhappy environment for children. He acknowledged that teenagers would try to circumvent the ban, but said people get around other laws and that does not make them pointless.
Starmer said the government would 'move at speed' to pass the necessary legislation before Christmas and bring the ban into force early 2027.

GB News Presenter Alex Armstrong investigates whether kebab shops are abusing the distribution of skilled worker visas in London. Reporting from East Ham in London, Alex visits a local kebab shop that has been issued seven skilled worker visas, meaning the employer must legally pay them a minimum of £40,000 a year. However, when confronting the staff on camera, the workers struggle to explain in English what special skills they possess that couldn't be fulfilled by young British workers.

Reform UK MP Lee Anderson was left red-faced after being caught out during PMQs.
The Ashfield MP said: “It was reported on the TV yesterday that the Labour backbenches are revolting. Now that is a matter of opinion. Unlike the backbenchers and the Prime Minister…”

The extreme heatwave has beat records in the UK, caused hundreds of deaths in Europe, and shut down two nuclear reactors in France. Is this the new abnormal?
[Subscribe to our Substack newsletter: https://channel4news.substack.com/subscribe]
Temperatures in the UK hit another record high, reaching 36.4C and breaking Wednesday’s record for the hottest ever June day.
NHS trusts have declared critical incidents, a hosepipe ban is in force in Kent, schools are closing early and the Met Office warned of "significant disruption to daily life".
Extreme temperatures have swept through large parts of western Europe too, with Paris soaring to more than 40C. French police have imposed a ban on drinking alcohol in public from midday Friday.
The UN said the "savage heatwave" showed what the climate crisis looked like in practice, warning "it's just getting started".

Reform UK has made big gains at the expense of Labour and the Conservatives in English council elections, with around a quarter of councils still to declare.
Results are also coming in from parliamentary elections in Wales and Scotland, with Labour set for an historic defeat in Wales and the SNP claiming victory in Scotland.
The polls across Scotland, Wales and 136 English local authorities are the biggest set of elections since the 2024 election, and widely seen as a crucial test of Sir Keir Starmer's premiership.
