No, mumps is not an autoimmune disorder; it is a viral infection caused by the mumps virus. It primarily affects the salivary glands, leading to symptoms like swelling, fever, and headache. Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system mistakenly attacks the body’s own tissues, which is not the case with mumps. Instead, mumps is preventable through vaccination.
