VHS virus

VHS virus refers to the herpesvirus responsible for causing infectious diseases like cold sores, genital herpes, or other herpetic infections. It’s a common virus that stays in the body even after symptoms disappear, often reactivating during times of stress or illness. The virus spreads through skin-to-skin contact, especially when blisters or sores are present. While there’s no cure, antiviral medications can help manage outbreaks and reduce transmission. Infection with the VHS virus is widespread, with many people carrying the virus without symptoms, highlighting the importance of understanding, prevention, and treatment options.
