Vaccine for herpes in final trial phase

I am a 29 year old female who has had this for 10yrs. I have had 2 long term relationships one being a marriage which ended and i have a healthy child who is now 6. I am hoping that this vaccine is not another hoax to get us excited. The good thing about this is although you have it, it wont be as hard to tell someone if there is something around to prevent them from getting it to. I also read somewhere that they are researching a way to help prevent us from passing it along and getting outbreaks. If all this is true and it is just a matter of years not decades or more than I am excited, and will actually look forward to being with someone.

you can have children even as you have the herpes disease. In your last trimester of the pregnancy, they will give you medicine, so that you do not pass the disease on to the newborn. babies are born with their own immune system, not the mother's. You should research the disease more. I know a couple that has the disease and has a child. Don't let this disease affect your life because you are way young. I wish you the best...

Really nice work.. http://www.fsbnetwork.com

Anyone who has herpes can help by volunteering for clinical trials in your area:

I just came from the a clinic in Indiana and I'm getting Ozone and peroixde treatment. I got the virus last year but thus far the virus affects me off and on. I'm really trying to get rid of it. What has been your experience with trying to get rid of this monster. I need a cool friend; hell if we all pull together just mabe we can kill it. My name is larry.

There is a cure for herpes. But they will not put it on the market until 90% of the popullation is infected. There's been a cure for 20 years! I'm 18. Why must me and everybody suffer. We only get one life I'm tired of being depressed my whole life. I want my life back. I want kids but I will not have kids if they have a chance of getting herpes when they are born. The reason why they put it on the market is cause of money they make millions if not billions a year for herpes treatments an medicine. The world is nothin but greedy as people trying to make a buck. I feel them. But dont make others suffer. I want to enjoy my life. But now I cant there won't be a minute that goes by that I won't think about me havin herpes. For all thoses that do have herpes I feel you pain. Try your best to life your life have fun an keep your immune system strong.

nobody whats to cure something that makes money!!! by another drugs.
sad but true!!!!!
so there is no cure for long time. but vaccine maybe comes??? becouse that is not cure.

Sanofi-Pasteur just gobbled up Acambis for $549mn. Last year Acambis announced that it had a promising vaccine that is good in men & women & could also help folks already afflicted with recurrent HSV-2. This looks like the most promising breakthrough on the horizon and they are apparently supposed to be filing an "investigational drug" application sometime in 2009 which would make it more accessible to the public.

Harvard is somehow involved with this Acambis vaccine and they have a huge research endowment. The competition is fierce out there which is good for anyone with or at risk for HSV 1 or 2. American women are really affected by HSV-2 - about 30% and that just stinks. They estimate that a vaccine will generate the winner $2bn a year in revenue - that's a big prize. With the Valtrex patent expiring in June 2009 you're bound to see some breakthroughs.

I feel every state is competing with each other to see who comes out the cure. Who cares? The people living with it will be very happy and appreciate the researchers who are working every day to eradicate this virus from the human body. I have faith in them. Good luck

Once you have a virus vaccines won't work, I think they are only preventative.

Its a very limited vaccine. Women that are not infected can get it. It is estimated to have only a 50% protection rate. It is still questionable if it will ever hit the market.

Is there a time frame on this vaccine? I have genital herpes is there anything about a cure?

Anyone have any more information on this vaccine? I have been diagnosed w/ HSV1 and would like my boyfriend to get this vaccine asap. Also, would the vaccine prevent cold sores from spreading to the genitals?

Tetrasil was looking so hopeful that I was The #1 spokesman for the company. I even went to a few health food stores and got them to order it.
I even told people on the street about it.
Then one day as fast as it appeared it faded away.
It was supposed to be the ultimate viral/pathogen eliminator. Nanotechnology in a bottle able to penetrate spinal tissue and destroy AIDS, Herpes etc.
Up to this day I don't know what happened.
My whole future went poof! Now I'm back to waiting and hoping for something else to appear. I figured the combination of DMSO and tetrasil would guarantee the elimination of any HSV. Oh well.........back to the drawing board.

Do you think the makers of Zovirax want a vaccine? That's why it has taken this long...the Pharm's will figure out a way to make this "herpvac" disappear like all the rest

Hello,
I was diagnosed with the HSV2 last year, my friend who is a accupuntruist told me I should keep my immune system strong. He suggested I should take Lysin daily and also collostrum. I take both daily and it seems it help me with the outbreaks, I do not get them as often.

Good luck, hope there will be a cure soon.

when going to be ready the vaccine for herpes
