Thoughts? could my son get mumps from the vaccine two weeks too early?

Confusing question: You do not get the mumps from the vaccine. If the vaccine was given two weeks early, it is likely just as effective as if it were given on time. Some school systems/state health departments require that the vaccine be given on or after the birth date, but that is more a legislative issue & bureaucracy than a true need.I had to repeat the vaccine for several kids when the state law changed.
