Mechanism of action

The vaccine contains a live but weakened (attenuated) mumps virus strain that replicates in the body without causing disease. This triggers both cellular and humoral immune responses, generating antibodies and T-cell memory against mumps virus antigens. Upon exposure to wild-type mumps virus, the primed immune system can rapidly neutralize the pathogen and prevent infection or severe disease.
