Mumps is most likely to affect individuals who are unvaccinated or partially vaccinated against the mumps virus, particularly children. It spreads through respiratory droplets and direct contact with an infected person's saliva. People in close-knit communities, such as schools or daycare centers, are also at higher risk for outbreaks. Vaccination with the MMR (measles, mumps, rubella) vaccine is the best preventive measure.
