Neurotransmitters: fast, local (nerve-to-nerve, nerve-to-muscle).
Hormones: slower, long-distance (in the blood, move across the body).
But some act as both hormones & neurotransmitters.

HSV settles in the nerve cells but keeps growing & sheds for years.
Even after 10 yrs, regular shedding of HSV-2 can happen every 5 days & HSV-1 shedding every 50 days.
Most shedding episodes last 10-20 hrs.
