Yes, mumps typically confers lifelong immunity after infection. Once a person has recovered from mumps, their immune system produces antibodies that provide protection against future infections. Vaccination with the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine also offers long-lasting immunity, although vaccine-derived immunity may require boosters in some cases.
What else can I help you with?
What viruses you can only get once?
Viruses that typically confer long-lasting or lifelong immunity after infection include measles, mumps, rubella, chickenpox, and most strains of the influenza virus. However, some viruses, like the common cold or norovirus, can infect a person multiple times due to the presence of different strains or lack of long-lasting immunity.
Does the mumps vaccine last forever?
The mumps vaccine does not provide lifelong immunity for everyone. While the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine is highly effective and typically offers long-lasting protection, some individuals may experience waning immunity over time. Booster doses are not routinely recommended for mumps, but in certain outbreak situations, health authorities may advise additional vaccination. Regular vaccination helps maintain herd immunity and reduce the risk of outbreaks.
What infectious diseases confers no protection from reinfection after exposure?
Hepatitis C is an infectious disease that does not confer immunity after exposure. People who have been infected with hepatitis C can get re-infected with the virus.
Which diseases give life long immunity after an attack?
Certain diseases, such as measles, mumps, and chickenpox (varicella), typically confer lifelong immunity after a person has been infected. This is due to the robust immune response generated, leading to the production of memory B cells and T cells that can quickly respond to future exposures. Additionally, some bacterial infections like pertussis (whooping cough) may provide long-lasting immunity, although it can wane over time. Vaccination against these diseases can also induce similar long-term immunity.
What type of immunity results from recovery from mumps?
Naturally acquired active immunity
A person who has recovered from mumps is protected from contracting the disease by?
Active immunity.
Which diseases give life long immunity after and attack?
rubella,mumps,pertusis.DHF(Dengue haemorragic fever)
How can people become resistant to measles or mumps?
They either are vaccinated against those diseases, or they have them and build a natural immunity.
How do you improve your immunity?
There are different types of immunity Non-specific and Speicific and the best is Innate which is inborn, acquired active after exposure to a disease like measles & mumps and by vaccination which is Artificially acquired active immunity which is the practice now to prevent from incurring a disease.

What type of immunity are antibodies given to a person?
Artificially acquired Active- vaccines (active or live viruses that are lifelong immunity) Artificially acquired Passive - gamma globulin injection that is temporary (used for overseas trips)
Are all vaccines caused by antibody production and give lifetime immunity true or false?
False, because not all vaccines provide lifelong immunity. Some require boosters or reimmunization.
Are people with Hemophilia prevented of getting Malaria?
No, hemophilia does not confer an advantage against malaria. People with sickle-cell anemia do have an immunity, of sorts.
