Will the virus go away permanently when the warts are cleared?

No. The wart itself can be removed but the underlying
virus
hpv
can not. There is no treatment for the actual virus. The good news is most people's immune system will clear hpv over about 9 months.

No. Unfortunately the
virus
remains within the body.
