|| Mononucleosis Epstein-Barr Virus || Record only important info -The majority of people who get mononucleosis is caused by the Epstein-Barr Virus -Mononucleosis can also be caused by different viruses * Cytomegalovirus - There are many ways to spread Mononucleosis -Most people all get infected with EBV at some point in thier lives but the EBV is not active in your body. When it becomes active you will know have the symptoms but you can still spread it to people from time to time. -After you get infected with Mono you can still spread it to people even after a couple of weeks or months but if you have already had Mono in your lifetime, you will become immune to it. -The incubation peiod takes 4-6 weeks for the symptoms to show up. -About 95% of adults have been infected with EBV and 50% of kids are infected before age 5. So you may very well have already had mono and not known it. || Ideas, reactions to information

|| Mononucleosis EBV || Record only important info -Mononucleosis was originally named glandular fever by a group of German doctors. They named it that because you get swollen glands and lymph nodes when you suffer from it. - In 1889 Dr. E. Pfeiffer was said to have written the first discussion and description of the virus -In 1920 the disease was named "infectious mononucleosis" in Johns Hopkins Medical Bulletin in 1920, by Thomas P. Sprunt and Frank A. Evans. -In 1932, researchers Paul & Bunnell made a discovery which helped doctors to diagnose 'infectious mononucleosis' more accurately. -In 1964 a group of doctors discovered EBV but it was not until when a laboratory technician (who was working with the Epstein Barr Virus) got the infectious mononucleosis. Gertrude & Werner-Henle then made the link between EBV and Mononucleosis. || Ideas, reactions to information
