Mumps is caused by a parvovirus infection that is spread by
droplets of nasal secretions that are carried in the air. There has

(inflammation of the testes). The epidemic has been fuelled by the
declining numbers of children receiving mumps immunisation as part
of the combined measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine.
