Does anyone know or any research on the topic of Herpetic Symptom Variability? I am unable to find anything along the lines of " why are some people asymtomatic and others not?" Is it genetics? Nature or location of infection? Viral strain? Age of infection?
There seems to be a knowledge gap here and such research could yield significant improvement in treatment options.
Seperate yet equally pressing question, why is there so little interest in finding a cure? Modern knowledge of genetics and Gene editing has put us closer than we've ever been before. Just imagine what people would be willing to pay to be cured. Theres no shortage of profit potential, especially given that 25% of us minimum are infected (because as we know, money is the the only thing that matters in american medicine)
