The name of the disease acquired from EPV is Mononucleosis. Infectious mononucleosis (IM), also known as mono, is an infection commonly caused by the Epstein–Barr virus (EBV). Most people are infected by the virus as children, when the disease produces little or no symptoms.

Who Gets Mono?          How is it Acquired? 

# data[].attributes.body
Many people develop EBV infections as children after age 1. In very young children, symptoms are usually nonexistent or so mild that they aren't recognized as mono. Once you have an EBV infection, you are not likely to get another one. Any child who gets EBV will probably be immune to mono for the rest of their life.

Mono can be transmitted by "intimate" contact, but not necessarily from sexual activity, which can involve face-to-face contact even if you restrain from kissing. The EBV virus (the cause of mono) has a long incubation period (many weeks) so you have most likely been exposed already.

The symptoms include fatigue, fever, rash, swollen glands in the neck, lack of appetite, sore throat, weakness and sore muscles, and nausea.

Some prevention methods are to not kiss or share dishes or eating utensils with someone who has mono.(A brief kiss on the lips is not likely to spread Epstein-Barr virus). Do not donate blood even though it is unusual for this virus to be spread through blood, it is possible.

Treatment involves rest, fluids, and over-the-counter pain and fever-reducing medicines to ease symptoms.
