Epstein Barr virus can I get this infection by drinking uncooked water or dirty food ?

transmission of EBV requires intimate contact with the saliva (found in the mouth) of an infected person. Transmission of this virus through the air or blood does not normally occur.

uncooked water....love it!

um no

No, Unless the person who has it touched the food after they touched maybe their mouth or lips

No, you have had to be infected with mononucleosis in order to get EBV.

Epstein Barr is the organism that causes Glandular fever.

So chill, it's spread by person to person contact.
