The Department of Public Health for Philadelphia said Thursday the effectiveness of the mumps vaccination tends to wane over time so it’s not necessarily a case of unvaccinated people.Spokesman James Garrow says the outbreaks tend to be more common on college campuses where people are more closely in contact.
There is no cure for mumps. Symptoms include feeling tired, fever and swollen salivary glands on the side of the face. Garrow said the outbreak probably won’t increase in number since Temple health officials are being told to treat the virus instead of testing.
