The Epstein-Barr virus is present in human saliva and commonly spreads by sharing drinking glasses, toothbrushes, food, and drinks of an infected person or from a kiss of an infected person. Hence it is popularly known as kissing disease. Infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus is known as infectious mononucleosis. It can also spread through sex, organ transplant, and blood transfusion as it is present in the blood. Symptoms include fatigue, sore throat, fever, rash, appetite loss, and sore muscles. These symptoms simulate flu, and in most cases, they go undetected and get transmitted. As there is no medicine to cure this infection, symptomatic relief like painkillers and medications for fever can be taken. Adequate rest and intake of plenty of fluids are advised. Within few weeks, the infection gets cleared on its own.
