Independent infections of mononucleosis may be contracted multiple times, regardless of whether the person is already carrying the virus dormant. Periodically, the virus can reactivate, during which time the person is again infectious, but usually without any symptoms of illness.<sup id="cite_ref-CDC2014Eb_2-17" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CDC2014Eb-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Usually, a person with IM has few, if any, further symptoms or problems from the latent B lymphocyte infection. However, in susceptible hosts under the appropriate environmental stressors, the virus can reactivate and cause vague physical symptoms (or may be subclinical), and during this phase, the virus can spread to others.<sup id="cite_ref-CDC2014Eb_2-18" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CDC2014Eb-2"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-68" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-68"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>68<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-69" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-69"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>69<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="History">History</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Infectious_mononucleosis&action=edit&section=23" title="Edit section: History"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951" /><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Further information: <a href="/wiki/Epstein%E2%80%93Barr_virus#History" title="Epstein–Barr virus">Epstein–Barr virus § History</a></div> <p>The characteristic symptomatology of infectious mononucleosis does not appear to have been reported until the late nineteenth century.<sup id="cite_ref-Altschuler1999_70-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Altschuler1999-70"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>70<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1885, the renowned Russian pediatrician <a href="/wiki/Nil_Filatov" title="Nil Filatov">Nil Filatov</a> reported an infectious process he called "idiopathic adenitis" exhibiting symptoms that correspond to infectious mononucleosis, and in 1889 a German <a href="/wiki/Balneologist" class="mw-redirect" title="Balneologist">balneologist</a> and pediatrician, <a href="/wiki/Emil_Pfeiffer" title="Emil Pfeiffer">Emil Pfeiffer</a>, independently reported similar cases (some of lesser severity) that tended to cluster in families, for which he coined the term <i>Drüsenfieber</i> ("glandular fever").<sup id="cite_ref-Evans1974_71-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Evans1974-71"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>71<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-72" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-72"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>72<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-73" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-73"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>73<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>The word <i>mononucleosis</i> has several <a href="/wiki/Word_sense" title="Word sense">senses</a>,<sup id="cite_ref-Dorlands_74-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Dorlands-74"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>74<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> but today it usually is used in the sense of infectious mononucleosis, which is caused by EBV. </p><p>Around the 1920’s , infectious mononucleosis was not known and there were not many things to test whether people were infected or not.
