How come Herpes research is so sparse, when Herpes keratitis is one of the leading causes of *infectious blindness in the first world?
As far as I've gathered info on it, it gets not a lot of funds and research institutes have to get crowd-sourced to start oncoming trial phases.
As a patient with Herpes Keratitis, who's unresponsive to Valacyclovir and gets recurrent outbreaks every 2-3 months since 10 years, that's a question I would really love to get an answer to, or atleast infos about.
