    It's been a long time since I read about this, but aren't they really just the same thing in different places?

      Then you have someone give their partner head and no one can tell which kind of herpes they have without tests, because as far as I know they supposedly present the same.

        It’s ridiculous that we don’t have a cure or at least a vaccine for Herpes at this point. Some scientists believe it’s a major contributor to Alzheimer’s.

        I mean, it infects your nerve cells. That's a tricky place for medicine for obvious reasons.

          Both kinds can infect anywhere on the body, they just each have a zonal preference.

              No, only 13% have the kind that specializes in your genitals. Where they have it and the other kind is not a part of the static. (However it's pretty likely the numbers sort of self-balance and it ends up that about 13% of people have one of the herpes virus on/near their junk.)

                You see that is rather pertinent information.

                Why? We were talking about STDs, that's the only thing my comment aims at. Plenty of ways to ensure no pregnancy happens.
