You likely haven’t heard of Epstein-Barr Virus (EBV), but you’re probably familiar with the virus it causes: mononucleosis, aka “mono,” aka “the kissing disease.” Though EBV isn’t a household name, chances are you’ve been infected with it and didn’t even know since it is one of the most common viruses in humans and rarely causes symptoms. EBV can’t be treated with antibiotics, and mostly lays latent in the body and causes other issues.
