Mumps Vaccines
Standalone live-attenuated mumps vaccine (now administered as part of MMR)
This page catalogs 1 standalone mumps vaccine product. The Jeryl Lynn strain, isolated by Maurice Hilleman from his daughter in 1963, became the basis for the first licensed mumps vaccine in 1967. Standalone mumps vaccination was largely replaced by the combination MMR (measles-mumps-rubella) vaccine. Current mumps vaccination in the United States is administered exclusively through combination products such as M-M-R II and ProQuad.
