Wisdom teeth removal: What to expect?

My boyfriend has mumps. Is there a 100% guarantee that I will catch it too?

Honestly, he should be worried about going sterile!!! As soon as he's back on his feet, he needs to get a sperm count check immediately!

So, my roommate just came down with the flu, and since finals week is officially kicking my ass, I’m stuck sharing a tiny room with him. No way I can bail right now. I got vaccinated when I was a kid, but I don't think I ever actually caught the bug back then. Is there any chance I'll still get hit with it despite the shot? Looking for some advice here because this room is basically my only sanctuary to crash and try to get some sleep.

I got vaccinated when I was a kid, but is there any chance I could still catch it even with the shot? I didn't actually get sick back then, so I'm not sure how much protection I really have. Any advice? This room is literally the only place I can crash and try to get some sleep before my exams.

She needs to head to the ER right now!

Catching this stuff as an adult is seriously dangerous.

So I tried telling him myself, but we aren't exactly on speaking terms, so he just gave me the cold shoulder and totally screwed me over. I ended up reporting him for having a communicable disease, but honestly, nothing's come of it yet 🤷

Just go talk to the director of the nursing home already!!!!

It’s definitely not a 100% guarantee, especially if you've already had your shots.
Sterility is a pretty rare complication... even if you end up dealing with orchitis, it doesn't mean all the tissue gets hit. Honestly, a potential case of pancreatitis is a much bigger worry...
