In most healthy individuals, it often goes unnoticed or causes mild symptoms resembling mononucleosis (fatigue, fever, sore throat, and swollen lymph nodes). However, in immunocompromised individuals or in a fetus during an infection in pregnancy, it can lead to more serious complications, including damage to organs, the nervous system, or hearing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"1311\" data-start=\"604\"\u003eCMV is transmitted through contact with \u003cstrong data-end=\"666\" data-start=\"644\"\u003ebodily fluids\u003c\/strong\u003e such as saliva, urine, blood, semen, or breast milk. It therefore circulates easily in daily life, especially with young children. Once in the body, it can enter a \"dormant\" phase and reactivate if the immune system weakens. There is no complete cure to permanently eliminate the virus, but \u003cstrong data-end=\"1055\" data-start=\"1041\"\u003eantivirals\u003c\/strong\u003e can control the infection in high-risk or severe cases.
