Question: What is HSV 1 AND HSV 2?
what is HSV 1 AND HSV 2 and why can somebody have hsv 1 and hsv 2 and never know they have it?

Answers:

HSV-1 and HSV-2 are Herpes simplex viruses. HSV-1 causes cold sores, while HSV-2 causes genital herpes. Both viruses establish life-long infections. With HSV-1, only half of the people who are infected actually get cold sores, meaning that many are infected without knowing it. With HSV-2, the lesions are often on the cervix where they go un-noticed.
