Two students at Oregon State University have been hospitalized this week with meningococcal disease, according to the Corvallis Gazette Times.

Seth Collins, a wide receiver with the Oregon State football team, is believed to be the first student hospitalized, according to The Oregonian. He was admitted to Good Samaritan Medical Center in Corvallis on Monday.

The second student, admitted on Thursday, has not been identified. Both students are reportedly in good condition, the Gazette Times reported.

Meningococcal disease is a rare but serious bacterial infection. Symptoms can include fever, nausea, vomiting, mental confusion and increased sensitivity to light, according to the Centers for Disease Control. It can be deadly if not treated quickly.

There was a meningococcal disease outbreak at University of Oregon in the 2014-15 school year, with seven confirmed cases among UO students. UO student-athlete Lauren Jones died of the disease in 2015.

According to the University Health Center, the UO outbreak is over as of July 1.
