medicines in prevention and control of Mumps.
Objectives: -
1. To explore incidence , prevalence and fatality rate of
Mumps.

Introduction:-
• Definition:-
Mumps is a highly contagious viral illness caused by the mumps
virus, a paramyxovirus of the Rubulavirus genus. It primarily affects
children and is characterized by inflammation of the parotid glands
(salivary glands located near the ears), which causes swelling of the
cheeks and jaw (often on one side at first, then the other).

1. Mumps virus are arbovirus transmitted by mosquito Ades
aegypti and Ades albopictus capable of infecting human and
causing disease.
2. It is prevalent in tropical and sub-tropical regions and is
estimated that upto 390 million infection occur annually with
severe cases leading to hospitalization and even death.
3. The virus has 4 different serotypes, and infection with one
serotype does not provide immunity to others, increasing risk
of severe illness in subsequent infection.
4. Despite efforts to control the disease through vector control ,
Mumps remains significant global health challenge.
5. This synopsis aims to explore various aspects of Mumps,
including its epidemiology, clinical manifestations, diagnosis
and management, with ultimate goal of contributing to
development of effective strategies for Mumps prevention
and control.

• The incubation period, the time between infection and
symptoms appearing, is typically 16 to 18 days. However,
it can range anywhere from 12 to 25 days.
