In this news brief, I look at several US East Coast universities and colleges reporting mumps outbreaks in recent weeks.
I look at the schools that span from South Carolina to Pennsylvania–the College of Charleston, Elon University, High Point University, Ferrum College and Moravian College.
I also go over some basics on mumps to include symptoms and complications and the MMR vaccine.
