    Information on Mumps Symptoms, Diagnosis, Prognosis, Screening and Imaging

    Symptoms include swelling of one or more salivary glands, usually the parotid. Adults born before 1957 can be considered immune. Immunity can be proven by IgG antibodies. [Chin] "Most cases of mumps in health care personnel have been community acquired. . . . Droplet precautions are recommended for patients with mumps; such precautions should be continued for 9 days after the onset of parotitis. . . . An effective vaccination program is the best approach to prevention of nosocomial mumps transmission." [CDC Guidelines for Infection Control in Health Care Personnel]
