Bimodal Temporal Distribution of Herpes Explains Resistant Cases to Oral Antiviral Agents
Keyword(s):
Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV) is a double-stranded virus that affects the skin and mucous membranes. There has been a long-standing dogma stating that the virus remains dormant and is reactivated from the dorsal root ganglia. However, more recent studies have established that there is a secondary mode of viral reactivation from the epidermis itself. These two distinct reactivation patterns help explain why prophylactic antivirals do not consistently prevent herpes outbreaks.
