• The Herpes viruses (family herpes viridae) are a very important group of double stranded DNA viruses that replicate inside the nuclei of their host cells. Herpes virus is contracted through direct skin contact. Herpes viruses are responsible for a range of common conditions including chickenpox, shingles, glandular fever, cold sores and genital herpes.
• Herpes virus also infects the genito-urinary system. Herpes virus is only fatal during the first week or two of life. Herpes viruses are not prone to frequent major mutations, so a peaceful coexistence develops between the horse’s immune system and the virus.

• When the symptoms of the secondary stage disappear, a relapse of the second stage of syphilis can happen when these symptoms come back.
• If a relapse occurs, the disease can be transmitted to others. Otherwise, the disease can not be transferred to another person.
