Bacteria and viruses are the two main causes of meningitis. The bacterium Neisseria meningitidis, also called meningococcus, causes meningococcal meningitis. In children and teens, meningococcus is the most common cause of bacterial meningitis. In adults, it is the second most common cause.
A 14-passenger matatu cost 70 shillings to ride; in a 15-hour day it could make six to seven round trips, taking in 6,000 to 7,000 shillings, about $100. Riding a 51-passenger matatu cost 40 shillings for a vehicle that moved more slowly; it only managed five to six round trips in a day.
While you might not be the type to wear a tutu every day, I think itâs always a good idea to have one on hand just in case you ever get the urge to frolic around in yards of frilly fabric. Or maybe you just want something to wear with your Halloween costume this year. Either way, this is a winner. Youâll need: Tulle (and lots of it). For my tutu I used 10 yards of 54-inch-wide tulle. I think this amount would work best for small/medium-size folks. For larger sizes youâll probably want at least double that amount. If you want a longer tutu, use wider pieces of tulle. A piece of fabric measuring 5â³ in width and your waist* measurement in length, four extra inches for overlap. A piece of ribbon thatâs long enough to fit around your waist,* plus a little extra to tie the ends off with.
