Article points out she had herpes. Cold sore type or genital ? If she was being treated a week prior then why was the injection given to her? Wouldn't this effect her immune system also? Maybe not the cold sore type but none of the many articles I have read specify HSV1 or HSV2. Could you clairify this?
