Here is a nice round up of the known evidence: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6419779/

TLDR: "Longer duration controlled studies of daily lysine doses exceeding 1.2 g/d are required to definitively test its role in herpes simplex prophylaxis"

EDIT: After reading through the provided table, to me it seems that most studies show little to no evidence that Lysine doses help against the virus. It looks like it's mostly placebo. (Disclaimer, I am not a virologist, this is my take on the paper.)
