Abstract:
We report on a 17-year-old female adolescent who presented with marked fatigue. The cause of this was found to be Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, fatigue doesn't always have to be caused by SARS-CoV‑2 but can also be induced by other adolescent-onset diseases (EBV), Up to 13.5 % of EBV sufferers develop chronic fatigue syndrome, which is why it makes sense to determine the exact cause. Diagnosis, therapy and prognosis of infectious mononucleosis are addressed.
