Avoiding sex when there is an obvious outbreak, without using condoms, there is a 4% per year transmission rate from female to male and 10% from male to female.

Avoiding sex when there is an obvious outbreak, with using condoms reduces the transmission rate by 30%.

Avoiding sex when there is an obvious outbreak, without using condoms but with using suppressive therapy (i.e. valtrex) reduces the transmission rate by 48%.

Avoiding outbreaks, using condoms and using daily antivirals is associated with a 1% transmission rate per year.
