Mumps Popping Up All Over

CNN reports on a mumps epidemic in Iowa:

"We are calling this an epidemic," said Iowa state epidemiologist Dr. Patricia Quinlisk, explaining that mumps has spread to more than one-third of the state and does not appear to be confined to certain age groups or other sectors of the population.


Thanks to JAD for the tip.
