Kissing also causes disease, know what is ‘kissing disease’

Do you drink a coke with the same straw, do you eat ice cream with the same spoon… so be careful. This disease spread through kissing is called ‘kissing disease’ or ‘Mono’. 

According to Dr.  ‘Kissing disease can be spread by many viruses, but it has been seen in 90 percent of the cases that the disease is spread by Epstein Barr virus (EBV), which is caused by human saliva. 

When a person comes into contact with another person during kissing, the virus is passed from person to person and then spreads throughout the body. 

According to the American organization Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), kissing disease is also called human herpes 4.
