HSV1 and HSV2

I want to know if Rosetta really researching on these viruses???

If yes, then what level or stage we are now?

How many years before a cure will be found?


Thank you.

Nothing to do with Rosetta, but I believe the Australian team that invented the preventative vaccine for genital herpes is now working on a curative version for those who are already infected.

Of course, expect it to take years at a minimum.

Oops, my error. They are working on the Human Papilloma Virus (warts), not herpes.

Some herpes-related research, apparantly NOT done at Rosetta:
