What else can I help you with?
Do you have to stay home if you have mono?
This is directly from the CDC: Most individuals exposed to people with infectious mononucleosis have previously been infected with EBV and are not at risk for infectious mononucleosis. In addition, transmission of EBV requires intimate contact with the saliva (found in the mouth) of an infected person. Transmission of this virus through the air or blood does not normally occur. The incubation period, or the time from infection to appearance of symptoms, ranges from 4 to 6 weeks. Persons with infectious mononucleosis may be able to spread the infection to others for a period of weeks. However, no special precautions or isolation procedures are recommended, since the virus is also found frequently in the saliva of healthy people. In fact, many healthy people can carry and spread the virus intermittently for life. These people are usually the primary reservoir for person-to-person transmission. For this reason, transmission of the virus is almost impossible to prevent.
What is the acute infection caused by the Epstein-Barr virus?
Epstein-Barr is a virus in the herpes family (number 4) that is best known as the cause of infectious mononucleosis (also called mono and glandular fever). It was first described in 1968 by Epstein and Barr. Around nine out of 10 adults carry the virus, making it one of the commonest human viral infections around. The virus "hides" from our immune systems until they weaken and then they attack. Many times this results in cancer of the lymph system. It has been commonly seen in HIV patients and organ transplant patients because their immune systems are not working well.

What is the term for disease caused by the epstein-barr virus?
When infection with EBV occurs during adolescence or young adulthood, it causes infectious mononucleosis 35% to 50% of the time. Symptoms of infectious mononucleosis are fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph glands. Sometimes, a swollen spleen or liver involvement may develop. Heart problems or involvement of the central nervous system occurs only rarely, and infectious mononucleosis is almost never fatal. There are no known associations between active EBV infection and problems during pregnancy, such as miscarriages or birth defects. Although the symptoms of infectious mononucleosis usually resolve in 1 or 2 months, EBV remains dormant or latent in a few cells in the throat and blood for the rest of the person's life. Periodically, the virus can reactivate and is commonly found in the saliva of infected persons. This reactivation usually occurs without symptoms of illness. It is a common virus however and most people contract it in their lifetime, and similarly most do not know they have had it either. EBV may also cause Burkitt's lymphoma.

What is the difference between a bacterial lysogenic life cycle and a lyric life cycle?
In a bacterial lysogenic life cycle, the virus integrates its DNA into the host's genome and replicates along with the host cell. In a lytic life cycle, the virus infects the host cell, replicates rapidly, and then bursts the cell to release new viral particles.
Does Measles go through the lysogenic life cycle or lytic life cycle?
Measles goes through the lytic life cycle, where the virus enters a host cell, replicates, and then destroys the host cell to release new viral particles. This leads to symptoms associated with the infection.

Can you get Mononucleosis?
It is possible, but not likely. If you have already had mono once, then the virus is in your bloodstream for life (no, you are not contagious for life) if you become very ill, or if your immune system is weakened, then it is possible to contract it again, albeit unlikely.
The life cycle of a typical DNA virus consists of 4 steps?
The typical life cycle of a DNA virus involves attachment to the host cell, entry into the cell, replication of viral DNA and production of new virus particles, and finally release of these new viruses to infect other cells.
