Young adults can contract mumps, especially if they were not vaccinated or did not receive all required doses of the MMR vaccine (measles, mumps, rubella) during childhood. Mumps is a viral infection characterized by swelling of the salivary glands and can lead to complications such as orchitis, meningitis, and hearing loss. Outbreaks can occur in close-knit communities or among unvaccinated populations. Additionally, immunity from childhood vaccinations can wane over time, leaving some young adults susceptible to the virus.
