wait, hold on. there's an effective drug that cures HHV-1 and alot of other things include the cryptoplasma cat parasite virus, and Herpies 2. There's no toxic limit (people take 4g twice a day with no side effect, way over what is needed to kill it) and it works within 48-72 hours. We don't need a vaccine. It could be sold over the counter. There are two groups that have separate method of actions, so if it fails there's another one.

This is categorically false.
There is no cure for HSV.
The current state of care is periodic retroactive therapy in the case of an outbreak, or continuous prophylaxis which isn't completely effective due to lack of bioavailability.
People still get outbreaks during prophylaxis, and people still shed the virus when symptoms aren't present.
if your a doctor I'll send you the name of the drugs. They came out in 2015 and are about $80 each a pill, but you can buy them in India for $.34 each.

I am not a doctor, just a relatively informed individual.
I believe the drug you are talking about is Pritelivir/Amenamevir, currently marketed in Japan under the name Amenalief.
Am I correct? If so, I was not aware they are available in India for such a low price.
