Health officials in Sanpete County say they have confirmed more cases of the mumps in the northern section of the county.

Last month, the county asked unvaccinated students to stay home after two cases of the mumps were confirmed.

Now, county health officials say six cases have been confirmed and five more are suspected.

Unvaccinated students will be allowed back in class on Monday, after the 26-day exposure period for the outbreak expires.
