Causes of mumps. Mumps is due to an infection by the mumps virus. It can be transmitted by respiratory secretions (e.g. saliva) from a person already affected with the condition. When contracting mumps, the virus travels from the respiratory tract to the salivary glands and reproduces, causing the glands to swell.
Mumps virus causes an acute disease most common in children and young adults. It is transmitted by direct or close person-to-person contact, and school children are the main source of the spread. The pathogen is transmitted by salivary gland secretions, mainly just before and shortly after clinical onset (Baron, 1996).
