Genital Herpes Vaccine May Not be Available for Many Years; The CBCD Reviews a Report

“We really can’t predict when we will have a safe and effective vaccine against HSV-2.” (1)

Developing an effective vaccine is tough due to the high frequency of HSV-1 infections in many people.
— Dr. Thomas Quinn
ROCHESTER, NEW YORK, UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, September 30, 2015 /EINPresswire.com/ --

“Infected with a herpes virus? The CBCD recommends taking Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin.” - Greg Bennett, CBCD

According to the lead researcher of two studies that examined the development of vaccines against HSV-2, the herpes virus most commonly associated with genital herpes, an effective vaccine may not be available for many years. Dr. Thomas Quinn wrote that “Several vaccines have been made and evaluated but did not demonstrate high efficacy in the volunteers. Another large trial is currently under way and we will have to see how effective that will be.” (1) Interestingly, HSV-1 (the herpes strain most commonly responsible for cold sores) may be the problem. “Developing an effective vaccine is tough due to the high frequency of HSV-1 infections in many people that seem to interfere with the overall immunogenicity of the vaccine. (The ability of the vaccine to provoke an immune response)” (1) Dr. Quinn is a professor of medicine at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine.

The Center for the Biology of Chronic Disease (CBCD) is disappointed that an effective vaccine may indeed be unavailable for many years, since removing herpes from a long list of chronic diseases is very important.

However, the public should also be aware that it is common for many vaccine candidates to fail during clinical trials. Developing an effective, therapeutic vaccine against the herpes virus (HSV-1 and HSV-2) and gaining FDA approval takes time. Until any new anti-herpes vaccine is FDA approved, the CBCD recommends that infected individuals take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin, which are natural herpes remedies with a formula backed by clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines.

The formula of Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin was tested by Hanan Polansky and Edan Itzkovitz from the CBCD in two clinical studies that followed FDA guidelines. The studies showed that the formula is effective against the herpes family of viruses. The clinical studies were published in the peer reviewed, medical journal Pharmacology & Pharmacy, the first, in a special edition on Advances in Antiviral Drugs. Study authors wrote that, “individuals infected with HSV-1 or HSV-2 … reported a safe decrease in their symptoms following treatment with (the formula of Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin).” (2) The study authors also wrote that, “We observed a statistically significant decrease in the severity, duration, and frequency of symptoms.” (2)

Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin are natural antiviral dietary supplements. Their formula contains five natural ingredients: Selenium, Camellia Sinesis Extract, Quercetin, Cinnamomum Extract, and Licorice Extract. The first ingredient is a trace element, and the other four are plant extracts. Each ingredient and its dose was chosen through a scientific approach. Scientists at polyDNA, the company that invented and patented the formula, scanned thousands of scientific and medical papers published in various medical and scientific journals, and identified the safest and most effective natural ingredients against latent viruses.

To date, Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin are the only natural antiviral products on the market with published clinical studies that support their claims. Note: Novirin has the same formula as Gene-Eden-VIR. However, it contains higher quality and more expensive ingredients.

It should be noted that “At present, there is no cure for herpes and the infection is life-long. Current therapy for HSV-2 involves daily doses of antiviral drugs which can reduce, but not eliminate, outbreaks and viral shedding, so they can only reduce symptoms but are unable to prevent the spread of the virus.” (3)

What treatments are currently available for those infected with the herpes virus?

“Two types of antiviral treatments against HSV are available: topical and oral. The treatments include penciclovir, acyclovir, famciclovir, and valaciclovir. However, their effectiveness is limited. For instance, a meta-analysis of five placebo-controlled and two dose comparison studies evaluated the effect of aciclovir, famciclovir or valaciclovir on symptoms. The meta-analysis showed that oral antiviral therapy decreases the duration and the associated pain of an outbreak by merely one day.” (2)

The CBCD points out that there are also the natural antiviral products, Gene-Eden-VIR and Novirin, which were designed to help the immune system target the latent HSV in those already infected.

“We believe that a vaccine that is effective against both the active and latent herpes viruses is a medical breakthrough. However, until such a vaccine becomes available, the CBCD recommends that HSV infected individuals take Gene-Eden-VIR or Novirin against the latent HSV.” – Greg Bennett, CBCD
