Mumps is a fairly contagious viral disease (although not as contagious as chickenpox) and is caused by the myxo virus; it is something that has plagued the human race for centuries.
These include an apparent resistance to the myxo virus, which was introduced in 1979; eradication of feral cats by 2000; and increased rabbit breeding success, possibly due to climate change.
It is caused by the myxo virus and individuals can be infectious for up to two weeks.
