Question
In women, this disease may lead to an S-shaped swelling of the upper eyelids called the Hoagland sign. It’s not COVID-19, but many cases of this disease can be characterized by the presence of reactive Downey cells. This disease is rapidly diagnosed with dubious accuracy during a heterophile (“HEH-teh-roh-FYE-oh”) antibody test. Though most cases are clinically silent, this disease can sometimes be identified using a symptomatic triad of fever, sore throat, and (*) lymphadenopathy (“lim-FAH-deh-noh-PAH-thee”). In many cases, this infectious disease can cause its sufferer to have an enlarged spleen for a few weeks. This non-oncogenic disease, whose most common causative agent is the Epstein-Barr virus, disproportionately affects young adults and teenagers. For 10 points, name this disease, colloquially known as the “kissing disease.” ■END■
