At the same time, mumps is a viral infection that attacks the parotid glands (salivary glands) causing swelling in the cheek and throat. This virus spreads through droplets, like chicken pox.
In teenage boys or adult men, it can cause an obstruction called orchitis (inflammation of the testicles), which can reduce fertility or cause infertility.
An obstruction can also cause serious problems such as viral meningitis (inflammation of the lining of the brain and spinal cord), pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas), and in some cases it can cause deafness.
Lumps also spread easily in crowded environments such as schools. Without a lockdown, the potential for transmission is higher and can exacerbate the impact on students and school staff.
Dicky believes that a 14-day lockdown and the implementation of Distance Learning (PJJ) from 17 to 31 October 2024 are the right actions to prevent the spread of these two diseases.
