The world is the planet Earth and all life upon it, including human civilization. In a philosophical context, the world is the whole of the physical Universe, or an ontological world. In a theological context, the world is the material or the profane sphere, as opposed to the celestial, spiritual, transcendent or sacred.
Should your child require the mumps vaccine post blood testing, you will need to consider getting the combined MMR vaccine done. The single measles and rubella vaccines are still readily available. Alternatively you could bypass the blood testing route and opt for the combined MMR vaccine.
U.S. Vaccination Recommendations. Mumps vaccination is included on the U.S. childhood immunization schedule as part of the combined MMR vaccine. This vaccine is given in two doses, the first at 12-15 months of age and the second between 4-6 years of age. Alternatively, mumps vaccination is available as part of the newer MMRV (measles, mumps, rubella, and varicella) combination vaccine, which also protects against chickenpox.
