A member asked:
Is it possible to contract mumps after being vaccinated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mumps vaccine: Like the measles and german measles vaccines, the mumps vaccine is very effective in prevention of those diseases. There is no need to receive the mumps vaccine if you already contracted the disease.
