"Mumps has been recognized as a common childhood illness since the time of Hippocrates in the fifth century BC. In 1790, central nervous system involvement was described by Hamilton and, in 1860, sensorineural deafness by Toynebee. By the 1940s, mumps was garnering mounting concern as a cause of painful orchitis, aseptic meningitis, and encephalitis that was substantially affecting troop mobilization."
