No temperature. Herpes is an incurable disease. Stays with you for life.
Actually, that is not the correct answer on a couple of levels. First, herpes is not a disease, it is a virus. And fortunately, all viruses can be killed, or we would potentially die every time we ate cooked meat, as heating food kills viruses and bacterias.
Hippocrates once said that if he could harness the power of the fever, he could cure all forms of disease. Ever been sick and run a temperature? That is your body fighting off the viral attack, using heat to kill the virus.
It's the rise in body temperature that halts viral replication by inhibiting the DNA strand telomeres from capturing the free amino acids needed to replicate.
Now, I do not know what temperature exactly but herpes is a virus and thus is susceptable to heat.

There is no cure for this Virus While you may be able to kill the virus if you isolate it through freezing you would still be stuck wit the virus being established in nervous tissue of the body so you just cant get rid of it that way without killing your self.

∙ 14y agoNo, because the virus is far down in the nerves - not near the surface
