Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Human B cells are the primary targets of Epstein Barr virus (EBV) infection. In most cases EBV infection is asymptomatic because of a highly effective host immune response but some individuals develop self-limiting infectious mononucleosis, while others develop EBV-associated lymphoid or epithelial malignancies.
Detailed explanation-2: -EBV is found all over the world. Most people get infected with EBV at some point in their lives. EBV spreads most commonly through bodily fluids, primarily saliva. EBV can cause infectious mononucleosis, also called mono, and other illnesses.
