Mumps
The recent epidemic has left the efficacy of the vaccine in question:Even among those given both shots, 10 percent are left unprotected against mumps. The failure rate for measles and rubella is only 1 percent. For those who skip the second shot, 20 percent have no mumps protection, with 6 percent to 8 percent remaining vulnerable to measles and rubella.
Comments:
the disease is quite mild, rare severe complications, 2 shots against it don't work so leave it alone! take it out of the MMR that might be related to autism or at least give people the choice and let people get it when they're young and then you don't have to worry about it anymore.
