Increased Mumps Cases in Maine - November 2016
Summary: Maine CDC is investigating several cases of mumps on Maine college campuses; currently there are cases reported or under investigation in Androscoggin, Cumberland and Kennebec counties. Maine CDC is working closely with all schools to identify cases and provide recommendations for control. The intent of this HAN is to remind providers to test patients with clinically compatible symptoms for mumps and encourage vaccination. Additionally schools should review all vaccination records as unvaccinated students in schools may be excluded if cases are identified.
