Genital Immune Correlates of Seroprevalent and Seroincident Herpes Simplex Type 2 Infection Among Women Who Sell Sex in Nairobi, Kenya

American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, Volume 95, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Problem Most Herpes simplex virus type 2 (HSV‐2) infection is asymptomatic but increases the risk of HIV acquisition, possibly due to alterations in genital immunology. We examine associations of HSV‐2 prevalence and incidence with epithelial barrier disruption. Method of Study The study was nested within the longitudinal Maisha Fiti cohort of
