Herpes - how much do you know? - GoFuckYourself.com

Sarah_Jayne · 02-24-2005, 08:33 AM

really...a lot of us here grew up as part of the HIV/AIDS scare generation but how much do you know about other STDs and in particular herpes? I personally know two people in the last year that have tested positive..one on either side of the atlantic. Then, I read an article the other day over here about a large increase in cases of herpes amongst teenagers in the UK who think oral sex is perfectly safe, etc.

Are performers in the industry tested for it as regularly as they are HIV, etc. My one friend in the States reported difficulty in getting a proper test for it stating that the clinc said something about there having to be a 'break out' to do wide spread testing. I don't know how much of that is true since I don't live there.

I have a few dif friends who have gotten it. Its funny, I still hook up with girls who insist on not using condoms. I know you can still get it with one, but its alot safer than without.

I think that most people do have the kind that makes you get cold sores.

That is true, found more on that Herpes Vaccine, only partially effective for women (who never had a cold sore before). Herpes Vaccine Search Engine Results
