Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

We will be confirming that the patients are HIV positive and has antibodies to either HSV 1 or HSV 2 as part of the screening process. If so, we will then obtain patient baseline HIV-PCR, CD4, medial history including medications on day one. Whether the patient is on any or no herpes controlling medication. If the patient has what they feel is a flare up of HSV, they will come into clinic where the lesion will be culture and the patient's HIV-PCR and CD4 will also be obtained. Otherwise, the patient will receive phone follow ups every three months to see if there has been and change in their health or medications. The main endpoint is to see if there is a correlation between outbreaks in HIV patients and their CD4 cells and/or HIV and/or Herpes medication.
