Hey Eons fam! We’ve seen your comments about how many herpesviruses humans can have and we wanted to clarify a few things. The two viruses we focused on for this episode are the herpes simplex viruses, HSV-1 and HSV-2. But they’re not the only herpesviruses that can infect humans, they’re just the ones we usually call “herpes.” There are actually eight herpesviruses that we’re the primary host of, including the familiar ones that cause chickenpox/shingles and mono. We can also be infected by herpesviruses from other species (like we talked about here), with herpes B from macaques being probably the most well-known (and VERY rare) example. Thanks for watching!

To the point, you are in a very strange speaking speed for me. Too slow at 1X and too fast at 1.25X (my preferred play speed. Not a complaint. Just an observation. I may just use Eons videos, with you as a presenter, at 1X to sleep once in a while.

That's very interesting! When I studied nursing, there wasn't this information on the origins of HSV (graduated from nursing school in 1996). We knew it was a virus and that it became known as a virus in the 1940s but that was it. It's very interesting to learn origins of pathology to me because it gives more depth to what I already know. I imagine for some, this is less interesting because they may have already learned this in high school biology and consider it "common knowledge". Thankfully, amidst all the madness of our world, we can still manage to do meaningful research and exploration.

Excellent question! That would be a good topic for a video. For those who are so curious that they can't wait to see whether or not it will be picked up, here's a brief summary from what seems like a legitimate website (first thing to pop up on google that wasn't behind a paywall). www.malariasite.com/history-parasites/ Related to that, I'd like to see a video on the evolution of sickle cell disease (I wrote a paper on it in my undergrad years ago and still find the subject fascinating). Some interesting facts that I recall coming across: - as a genetic condition, it evolved more than once in human populations (at least three times iirc). It's a case of convergent evolution and typically popped up in areas where malaria was common. - it's very likely to be something that became widespread in humans only a few thousand years ago. Most likely explanation is that agriculture created mosquito breeding grounds, which made malaria much more common.

This would be interesting the weirdest thing about malaria is probably that genetically the lineage malaria comes from the apicomplexa are very strange as they are close relatives of cilliates and dinoflagellate algae, but somewhere along the line they lost photosynthesis to become obligate parasites of animals (with apparently one known exception that shows evidence of evolving from parasitism to co dependence in some animal called a sea grape). Malaria even still maintains and depends on their chloroplasts for non-photosynthetic processes even though they are no longer able to photosynthesize which is why antimalarial drugs are designed to target their chloroplasts as that is one of the few targets they have that has no analog in animals. What I am curious about is what could switch an algae to switch from producing its own food to parasitism I presume the nutrient desert of the open ocean might be one driver for such behavior since the reaction between iron and oxygen causes iron to precipitate out of the water and likewise Phosphorous is also scarce with the best source being other organisms. I have read some intriguing details about the evolutionary competition between algae for nutrients as algae kill and "eat" each other when nutrients begin to run out. It put a lot more prospective on to why red tides kill it is apparently largely where those massive blooms deplete nutrients and crash they don't do so lightly after all their are lots of phosphorous and iron inside other creatures so evolution favored mass scale poisoning. Malaria like red tide seems to offer a potent example that algae are not passive organisms.

I highly encourage you to look into the nutriceutical L-lysine. Making sure the lysine to arginine ratio in your tissues stays slanted in favor of lysine, you can make conditions ungood for replication of the virus, and thus keep it dormant and control outbreaks. If anyone has other illnesses or anything they should check with a physician before use of lysine, but it's generally safe and healthy for normative individuals since it's just an amino acid (another option is looking up and eating lysine-rich foods but I prefer to use supplements). I picked up oral herpes as a little kid and have used lysine to prevent outbreaks (with essentially perfect effectiveness; I only ever get outbreaks when I'm super stressed AND have been off my lysine for at least several weeks, so I go years at a time between breakouts) so it's been well over 20 years for me, and I can't recommend it highly enough. It's a cheap, generally safe, generally effective therapy for preventing replication in I believe the whole herpes virus family, and other viruses too. I hope more people look into the benefits of things like lysine and other legit evidence-supported nutriceuticals.

I haven't seen an actual comment like this since 2013.

This is the best-structured one yet! I especially liked the discussion about hypotheses and how much of this information we can be confident in. It would be nice if each video ended with an overview of how these studies supplement each other, and why we can trust the science. Too many of my friends will dismiss an entire topic because some of the downstream hypotheses are untested. It's important to teach people about how we know what we know and how much confidence we can have in this information. For example, can we be sure that Paranthropus Boisei was the hominin that transmitted HSV-2 to our ancestor? No, but it's not unlikely and it's a hypothesis based on informed calculations. Can we be sure that HSV-2 crossed species AFTER our last common ancestor with chimps? We can be fairly certain here since the science is robust, and the genetic data is clear. Critical thinking can and must be versatile. Great job once again!

Your team pulled through with covering this topic and many people I know are so glad Eons shared this information with us! Thanks so much to your work and many efforts to putting this segment together for the general public! I shared this video everywhere I could.

Help I've been watching PBS Eons videos for like 3h now, I can't stop I wish my university classes were this interesting, i can barely focus for like 30min on those

This video sent me back to looking as all the other videos you did on human history and hominids. You should make a poster of the different early human species that led up to us! I’d buy that

"...and we're still here." Bravissimo.

Great video as you have us accostumed to. I'd like to add, that maybe herpes wasn't so mild at the beginning. Many infections when they're starting to get from one species to the other (stages 2 and 3), many times are lethal or very morbid. Then, if they pass on to other stages of transmission till the moment we have full horizontal transmission, they tend to coevolve and become less virulent, who knows if even beneficial. Congratulations and thanks for all your efforts!

One of the worst things I learned that I didn't want to was that dogs can catch genital herpes from people (reading veterinary disease articles and stumbled upon one looking into a breakout in some communities dogs. I would love to forget their hypothesis on why it was happening)

And there's HCMV, which I learned about last February. "Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a beta-herpesvirus that causes lifelong infection in humans. HCMV has a prevalence of 55-100% within the human population, depending on different socioeconomic and geographical factors." My partner already had it and it flared up on him in late January 2020 and nearly killed him. He ended up spending almost all of February in the hospital as a result (which also meant that we were already quarantining in March to give his immune system time to recover - lucky for us). Normally, it's a harmless virus that most ppl will never even know they have. But for immune-compromised ppl like my partner (kidney disease), it can be deadly.

I've heard the the herpes virus resides in nervous tissue when its dormant so maybe the original infection may not have been merely from eating a proto-chimp but from specifically cracking a skull open and eating brain tissue? It's a bit of a stretch but it could increase the time of virulence of a carcass.

Since you need a high enough viral load to get infected with any virus, I'd say it's far more likely it came from an active infection rather than a dormant one. I'm not even sure dormant herpes spp. viruses are contagious, although assymptomatic shedding is a possibility.

Priscilla Falzirolli more than 70% of people have herpes 1 without symptoms, it obviously spreads regardless

The strain doesn't dictate whether you get oral or genital sores. You get sores in the location where the infection takes up residence, which will be in proximity to where the virus first makes its way into the body. This is usually an oral or genital mucus membrane, but it can also be another membrane or a laceration or other wound. Most infections are caused by either oral-oral or genital-genital contact, so there is a very strong correlation between strain and location. This is not a *causative* relationship, though; it is merely circumstantial to the means of transmission.

The first evidence of malaria parasites was found in mosquitoes preserved in amber from the Palaeogene period that are approximately 30 million years old. Human malaria likely originated in Africa and coevolved with its hosts, mosquitoes and non-human primates.

From my study, I know there are 6 or 7 herpes viruses that can infect humans like chicken pox, CMV, HSV1 and 2. What is the full story I would like to know. And thanks for this video, It keeps me interested.

Wikipedia says there are nine herpesviruses that infect humans. The most famous is _Varicella zoster_ , which causes chickenpox and shingles. This video seems to not actually be about the whole family of herpesviruses (called _Herpesviridae_ ), but specifically about the _Simplexvirus_ genus. There are only two of those viruses that infect humans, called _Human alphaherpesvirus 1_ and _2_ , though usually they are called "herpes simplex virus 1" (HSV1) and 2 (HSV2). I wish they had made that a little clearer.

Mating transmission never crossed my mind...
