Preventing mumps transmission in children involves:

  1. Vaccination: Ensure children receive the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine, typically administered after 9 months, 15 months and at 4-6 years.
  2. Avoiding Close Contact: Encourage children to avoid close contact with individuals who have mumps, especially in settings like schools or daycare centers.
  3. Good Hygiene Practices: Teach children to practice good hygiene, including frequent handwashing with soap and water, covering their mouth and nose when coughing or sneezing, and avoiding sharing utensils or drinks with others.
  4. Stay Home When Sick: Instruct children to stay home from school or daycare if they develop symptoms of mumps or any contagious illness.
  5. Prompt Treatment: Seek medical attention promptly if your child develops symptoms of mumps, such as swollen salivary glands, fever, headache, and muscle aches.
  6. Avoid use of unnecessary medications during the illness. Follow your Pediatricians advice properly.

By following these measures, the risk of mumps transmission among children can be reduced significantly.
