For those lucky 20% of people who don't show symptoms, has there been
research aimed at mapping their genetics?

I don't have an answer to your question but I think you mean "lucky
80%". They're the ones who have either no symptoms at all or they
have symptoms so mild they're not even noticed.
It's the 20% that DO have symptoms. And of that group, only a few
have severe symptoms or symptoms that don't dwindle away over time.
Not that it matters as far as your question is concerned. Hopefully
someone has an answer. I just wanted to mention about the 80/20
thing.

Lucky odds for me, then, since right now I've got a terrible breakout
;-( Thankfully I've started taking generic acyvlovir, 400mg 3x daily.
