TI  - Mumps outbreak on a university campus--California, 2011.
PG  - 986-9
AB  - Mumps is a vaccine-preventable viral disease characterized by swelling of the 
      salivary glands; serious complications (e.g., meningitis, encephalitis, orchitis, 
      or oophoritis) can occur. On September 29, 2011, the California Department of 
      Public Health (CDPH) confirmed by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) three cases of 
      mumps among students recently evaluated at their university's student health 
      services with symptoms suggestive of mumps. An investigation by CDPH, student 
      health services, and the local health department identified 29 mumps cases. The 
      presumed source patient was an unvaccinated student with a history of recent 
      travel to Western Europe, where mumps is circulating. The student had mumps 
      symptoms >28 days before the onset of symptoms among the patients confirmed on 
      September 29. Recognizing that at least two generations of transmission had 
      occurred before public health authorities were alerted, measles, mumps, and 
      rubella (MMR) vaccine was provided as a control measure. This outbreak 
      demonstrates the potential value of requiring MMR vaccination (including 
      documentation of immunization or other evidence of immunity) before college 
      enrollment, heightened clinical awareness, and timely reporting of suspected 
      mumps patients to public health authorities.
