Viral Infections: I may be missing the point of your question and apologize if i am. But, these are two separate viruses with two separate ways of becoming infected. They are in no way related. There is no link between the infections. Now. Ebv or mono is often a disease of teenagers and others leading to severe fatigue. It takes some time to heal after infection. If ii missed the point please ask again.

Yes: These are two separate viruses so you can have one without the other. The roots of infection differ.
