Mumps
Hi
well this morning a parent called me, her son has mumps, so he is off till next year! my query is "is it notifiable?" pla says dont know, havent got throught to ofsted yet! doctors dont know either have put a notice up for parents, as he was contagious last week. Also he is one that has had his mmr, concerned now about those who have not had it! thank you in advance sarah |
According to this page of the Department Of Health's website .. I'd say yes ~ But I'd of liked to think the Docs. knew who to contact !!
