Protects against mumps, a common complication of swelling under the ears, deafness, and brain damage
Mumps
Droplet, contact infection. It is a highly contagious infection.
Complications such as aseptic meningitis, orchitis, deafness, encephalitis, mastitis, oophoritis, and pancreatitis may cause aftereffects.
I have.
Vaccines are voluntary, so there is a charge, but it is recommended to be vaccinated twice.
As of 2021, it is not a regular vaccination yet, so I will inoculate at my own expense.
In general, for children over 1 year old, the 1st and 2nd doses are for seniors and are often reserved for simultaneous vaccination with the 2nd dose of MR vaccine. Since this is an injectable live vaccine, it is necessary to keep an interval of at least 4 weeks between MR and chickenpox vaccines if they are not administered at the same time.
If it becomes severe, it may cause orchitis, so some medical institutions recommend that boys receive the second dose several months after the first.
Since it is an optional vaccination, you can inoculate on a relatively free schedule. Adults who have never had mumps are recommended to be vaccinated.
If you get mumps, you are more likely to have severe aftereffects such as deafness.
It is very dangerous to take and try to build immunity naturally.
