Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a common virus that is widespread in the population. It's a member of the herpesvirus family and is typically transmitted through contact with bodily fluids, such as saliva, urine, or breast milk. Most people are infected with CMV at some point in their lives, but for healthy individuals, the infection usually causes no symptoms or only mild symptoms, such as fever, fatigue, or swollen glands. CMV can be problematic for people with weakened immune systems, such as those undergoing organ transplants or with conditions like AIDS, as it can cause more severe illnesses, including pneumonia and meningitis.
