Prof Robert Booy

Professor Robert Booy is a Paediatrician who has been at the forefront of maintaining the welfare of British Muslim Hajj pilgrims. Moved by the plight of the Hajj pilgrims that were suffering from a strain of meningitis, which killed over a thousand pilgrims all over the globe in the years 2000-2001, Professor Booy, in collaboration with local community leaders, set up a research programme which resulted in the Department of Health and global health authorities changing the composition of the meningitis vaccine. Professor Booy was further involved in the medical welfare of Britain’s Muslims through his campaigns to raise awareness of health issues. Currently based in Sydney, he visits London regularly to continue his health surveys with Muslims.
