Abstract. Vaccination against mumps is conducted in Russian Federation since 1981. This made it possible to decrease mumps incidence more than 600 times in compare with pre-vaccination period. Moreover disease became milder and mortality was eliminated. Population of Russia is immunized by locally-produced mono- and bivalent vaccines on the base of L3 strain. Vaccination and revaccination against mumps is safe and highly effective.
