If you live with someone who has mono, what can you do to protect yourself?

Asked by Jeruba (55829points) June 5th, 2011

If someone who lives with you has been diagnosed with mononucleosis, what measures can you take to avoid getting it

—if you have been on kissing terms with the person and
—if you haven’t?

(In a family situation, some might be while others might not.)

And does your level of risk change if the person moves out after receiving the diagnosis? or is it too late already?
