A student contracts Herpes Simplex Virus (HSV-2) from her partner. At first, she has numerous warts appear over her genital area that are painful to touch. After about a month, the symptoms disappear completely. What statement can now be said about the student? The HSV-2 is entering the lytic stage of the viral life cycle and may stay dormant for several years. O The HSV-2 is entering the tertiary stage where permanent irreversible nerve system and cardiovascular damage is occurring. O The HSV-2 became latent in her nerve cells and may cause outbreaks again in the future. O Her immune system was able to completely clear HSV-2 from her body and she is "cured" of HSV-2.
