Rochelle,
You don't know if your son never had the mumps. The mumps may appear as a simple cold. That's why we don't necessarily know what we had. An adult with a cold, could be carrying something like the mumps and give it to someone. Natural events should be greeted with gratitude. Were that we all lived in such communities.

Even polio can appear as cold/flu symptoms and pass.

Unfortunately in the susceptible it has devastating effects.
The vaccine still causes more polio cases – try telling that to Bill Gates!

I managed to get mine chicken pox; preferred planning it for a less-inconvenient time, vs. having it come up e.g. as we were preparing a vacation etc. But for measles, we weren’t able to find a case anywhere! This was 20+ years ago.

Yes Soroush – when I got Polio in the 1958 epidemic and was in hospital for a month lying on my back and told not to move but no treatment other than physiotherapy, the week before my sister had a 24 hour bad fever which passed. My mother always said that was Polio and I caught it from my sister. We were not vaccinated and my polioi was very mild and left me with few lasting effects. I think those who were vaccinated were the ones who ended up in the leg irons etc.
