Question 2

  a. The virus was completely gone from her body, but Sidney became reinfected when she had anal sex with someone who had an active outbreak of herpes.
  b. The herpes virus that Sidney initially contracted was dormant, but recently had a resurgence, migrating through her blood stream and causing an outbreak in a new region.
