How to use "Mononucleosis" in context?
Mononucleosis is a viral infection that causes a fever, muscle aches, and a sore throat. It is most commonly diagnosed in people aged 30 to 39 years old. Symptoms usually begin 2 to 7 days after contracting the virus and last for 7 to 14 days. People typically recover without any serious effects. However, mononucleosis can be serious in some people, and can lead to complications such as pneumonia. There is no specific cure for mononucleosis, butovicidab (radiation therapy) and oral quinolones (like ciprofloxacin) can help speed up the recovery process.
