Mumps outbreak infected 11 at city school

EIGHT students and three adults at one Winnipeg school contracted mumps in an unusual outbreak this winter that resulted in more than 200 people being immunized.
The Winnipeg Regional Health Authority is using the outbreak to draw attention to Immunization Awareness Week next week.
But the WRHA will not name the school, will not give the ages of the students involved or say whether the adults are teachers, and will not say if it is a public or private school.
There is no public health risk and identifying the school and its community could violate the privacy of health information of individuals, the WRHA said...
