Are there any links between mmr and genetic deafness?
Not at all. By MMR, I don't know if you're refering to the set of diseases (measles, mumps and rubella) or the MMR vaccine designed to immunize a person against such diseases. Either way, genetic deafness is caused by genetic factors as the name suggests. A vaccine or a virus is not going to alter your DNA to cause deafness.

What is the origin of mumps?
Mumps is caused by the mumps virus, a member of the Paramyxoviridae family. It was first identified in the 1930s, but the virus is believed to have existed for centuries prior, with historical references suggesting it may have been recognized in ancient times. The disease primarily spreads through respiratory droplets and can lead to swelling of the salivary glands. Vaccination efforts, especially with the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine, have significantly reduced its incidence in many parts of the world.

What does the doctor inject into the child to make the child immune to measles?
The doctor injects the child with the measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine, which contains weakened or inactivated forms of the measles virus. This stimulates the child's immune system to recognize and fight the virus, providing immunity against measles without causing the disease. The vaccine helps the body produce antibodies, ensuring protection if the child is later exposed to the actual virus.
