mo' mumps, mo' mumps mo' mumps mo' mumps-- CHECK IT OUT!

Just to continue with the Mumps in Moldova story that Deshka posted, they're saying that looking at the (very) spazzy trendlines, the general trend for the last 30 years has been a decrease in mumps incidence. http://exhibit.gideononline.com/Mumps-Moldova.JPG.

Poland looks like it's all over the place, and Moldova specifically looks like it's blending into Ukraine. In just 1996, I can't believe Poland had an incidence rate of 550 per 100,000 people.
