1. Mono

Mono, also known as mononucleosis, is a common disease that many people will have had at some point. It is very contagious and it is also, thankfully, usually only mild. It can affect people of all ages, but it is more common in young adults and adolescents. When young children are infected it will usually cause few, if any symptoms.

As things stand there is no vaccine and no cure for mono. However, the vast majority of people will have few problems with the disease, and their immune system will be enough to help them recover. Although it is usually only mild, however, serious complications will arise in a rare number of cases.
