Mononucleosis, commonly known as "mono," is primarily caused by the Epstein-Barr virus and is not classified as an infection of the respiratory system. Instead, it primarily affects the lymphatic system, leading to symptoms such as fatigue, fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes. While respiratory symptoms may occur due to throat inflammation, the main focus of the infection is on the immune system and lymphatic tissues.
