A member asked:
Can you get the kissing disease from someone you've been kissing for over two months and doesn't have the disease or virus and is a clean person?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mono: Is contagious only if the person you come in contact with( kiss). Has the disease. So if the person you know is healthy. You will not get sick. So kissing does not cause the disease
