Could i potentially have mumps even if i recieved the vaccine?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mumps: It is if you didn't get your appropriate boosters. You should have had a second MMR somewhere in late high school or early college-my guess based on your age. We now booster at age 5 yo, we did middle school age for awhile with catch up. If you think you might have mumps, you should seek medical advice.
