This virus spreads through saliva and can be transmitted through kissing, sharing utensils, or other close contact with an infected person. Most people are infected with EBV at some point in their lives, but many do not develop any symptoms. However, in some cases, it can lead to serious complications such as cancer. The EBV - Viral Capsid Antigen (VCA) IgM Panel is a comprehensive test that detects the presence of antibodies produced by the immune system in response to the EBV infection.
