Dr. Peter Leone (who has appeared in the New York Times and NPR’s Talk of the Nation) stopped by our monthly herpes support group in Raleigh, NC, to give herpes facts and update us on herpes statistics. He gave so much clarity around all the horribly misunderstood herpes myths out there!
Topics covered:
- herpes viral shedding
- the herpes vaccines being developed (might be on the market in as little as 5-10 years)
- herpes and sex with a herpes-free partner
- herpes medication
- herpes transmission rates
- last but definitely not least — herpes and oral sex (the answer to this one might surprise you!).
