How can herpes be contracted?!


Question: How can herpes be contracted!?

I thought that could only happen by sexual intercourse, or by intravenous drug usage!.

Can it be contracted any other way!?!.

I am interested due to the illness of a friend, who I would not have thought the above applied!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
Depends what sort of herpes you are talking about!.

The cold sore virus is actually a strain of herpes which can be contracted via kissing etc!.

The chicken pox/shingles is also a form of herpes!.

The sort that you are talking about can to my knowledge only be passed on via direct contact or contamination of needles etc!.

Hope this helps!.

P!.S- in case you hadn't gathered then there are lots of different strains of the herpes virus- all part of the same family but different appearances/ symptoms so you may have the cold sore virus but this does not mean that you have genital herpes!Www@Answer-Health@Com

if you have a cold sore or anything like that and you have contact with other persons' genitals then, they will catch herpes!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You should go to google and search herpes and get alllllll the info you need, THE CORRECT INFO!.!.
