I recently got tested for Mononucleosis,
and im awaiting a call now if its a
positive or negative, Now my question is
if two people, boyfriend and girlfriend
both have Mononucleosis would it
constantly affect them both if they were
to transfer saliva ie kissing?
Thanks--- john

If you mean both of you have already got
mono,the answer is no,because the virus
is life-long and the antibodiies also
remain almost always forecer.But just if
there is a slump in the immune system
caused by a reason as HIV or other immune
desease-the reactivation of the virus is
possible but this does not matter whether
there is a contact because you will have
this virus then so safe yourself from
HIV,you know how,by using a condom with
other sex partner or better do not have
I'd love to know other thing-if mono
can be transmited via small droplets in
the air when talking and after that
directly either being swallowed when
talking with an open mouth, inhaled, or
even contact with the eyes,as other
saliva infections such as flu do pass
.So is it possible to get EBV without
kissing or sharing infected objects from
mouth or nose ;just by doing nothing
I'm looking forward this answer very
much because
some say it is but they tend to pose
sneezing or coughing (but why not
talking) and other do say not as an
aerosol,that the transsmition requires
just direct contact with saliva.
