You really need to correspond with Larry Mullen in DoDMERB on this.
Just a fellow parent here, but recognize that the answer may vary depending on the type of HSV, etc.
HSV-1 is the virus that causes cold sores, and is quite prevalent. Studies indicate that by adolescence, 62% of Americans are infected with HSV-1, and by the time people are in their 60s, up to 85% have been infected. World-wide the figures are even higher.
HSV-2 is significantly different.
In any case, the issue needs to be worked directly with DoDMERB. Theirs is the only answer that matters!
