Run-on Sentences and Comma Splices. Run-on sentences can be divided into two types. The first occurs when a writer puts no mark of punctuation and no coordinating conjunction between independent clauses. The second is called a comma splice, which occurs when two or more independent clauses are joined by just a comma and no coordinating conjunction. Example of a run-on sentence: The flowers are beautiful they brighten the room. (Incorrect) Example of a comma splice: The flowers are beautiful, they brighten the room.

Treatment after 16 to 18 weeks will cure the infection and stop the damage to the baby. But it may not reverse damage already caused by the infection.
