LSU's Student Health Center has confirmed several student cases of mumps, which was communicated to students and faculty in a Division of Strategic Communications email on Tuesday.
Mumps is a contagious disease spread by contact with infectious respiratory tract secretions and saliva.
Students with swollen and tender salivary glands under the ears or jaw on one or both sides of the face should seek care at the Student Health Center or with their primary care provider. Students with signs of mumps must be kept in isolation for at least five days from the onset of salivary gland swelling.
While there is no specific treatment for mumps, most people recover fully. However, mumps can occasionally cause serious complications, according to the Student Health Center.

MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) is a requirement for those attending college. At least it was for me.

Typical LSU behind the curve. Mumps while all the cool kids are getting coronavirus.

Me and my good friend both caught the mumps from the same girl back in spring ‘89 —- and not the fun way. Just the hug and kiss hello way.
That was a miserable 7 day fever.

This has happened almost yearly for the last several years. Thats about the time when our immunity against MMR pathogens starts winding down for some people
