    About two years ago, my niece had swollen lymph nodes in her neck. He had a fever and chills. We took him to the hospital. I don't remember well, but the leukocytes were elevated in the blood test. The doctor said that he had some kind of bacterial infection, but they still didn't get the exact final diagnosis. treated with transfusions. The child recovered; he was eating well, but once every 2 weeks he had a high temperature. The fever went away by itself, and he completely recovered. wo years passed like this. A week ago, the child became ill. Symptoms: vomiting, a temperature of only 37.5, and very strong fatigue. We took him to the local hospital. He was given a transfusion, but he could not recover. The doctor advised us to take him to another clinic. We took him to another clinic. He was put in intensive care for two days. Antibiotics and transfusions were administered. He got well. He was transferred to the ward and discharged in a few days. The doctor told us one thing: the child's spleen is enlarged after the transfer of this virus. It is not dangerous, but we should check it in 2 weeks. After the discharge, the doctor calls us and tells us that the Epstein-Barr virus has been confirmed. That is, two years ago, the child had this virus, and they could not detect it. The doctor said that after transferring the virus, antibodies were produced. Now we have to observe the spleen. It is not dangerous; it will return to normal, but we have to check it in 2 weeks. Is this virus dangerous? Will it remain in the body for the rest of its life? Is it possible to cure this virus? What will happen next? Will this virus cause anything? I am very afraid.
