Epstein-Barr Virus and Associated Ailments
  • Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), also known as human herpesvirus 4, is a highly contagious virus that belongs to the herpesvirus family. It is one of the most common human viruses worldwide, affecting more than 90% of the world’s population. EBV is known to cause infectious mononucleosis, also known as mono, and is primarily transmitted through saliva.
  • EBV infection is primarily spread through saliva, but it can also be transmitted through genital secretions during sexual activity or through blood transfusions or organ transplants. Most people infected with EBV do not develop symptoms or only experience mild symptoms that are easily mistaken for other viral illnesses. However, some people may experience symptoms such as fatigue, fever, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and enlarged spleen.
