"Infectious Mononucleosis," or, "mono," is many times referred to as the, "kissing disease." The virus that causes mono is transmitted through a person's saliva and people can get it through kissing, although people can also be exposed to the virus through a sneeze or a cough, or by sharing a food utensil or a glass with someone who has the virus. Mono is not as contagious as some kinds of infections fortunately, such as the common cold.
