The sudden rise of mumps cases in 2005 was largely attributed to a decrease in vaccination coverage, particularly among adolescents and young adults. Many individuals had not received their full vaccination series, leading to increased susceptibility to the virus. Additionally, outbreaks were facilitated by close-contact environments, such as college campuses, where the virus can spread rapidly. Public health officials emphasized the importance of vaccination to control the resurgence of mumps during this time.
