Answer:

herpes simplex virus

Explanation:

Caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV), genital herpes is a sexually transmitted infection (STI) that attacks the skin and / or mucous membranes of the genitals of men and women. Once a person is infected, the virus hides in nerve cells and remains in the body forever.

One of the most common forms of genital herpes contagion is through intercourse, whether oral, an*l or vaginal, that happens without using a condom with an infected person and usually in crisis. Often this crisis may not be visible or at such an early stage that it will not be perceived. Transmission is more common when the lesion is active through contact with it, where there is a large amount of virus. But there are studies that report transmission without active injury less frequently.
