I did the best I could damage control wise when they showed that lesion, to emphasize that it was definitely not typical of a typical HSV1 lesion. I can't answer why...other than one of the producers did tell me they wanted to scare people into being more responsible.

ah although its good that they are trying to get rid of the stigma, they make it way worse by showing that photo! I caught a cold sore when i was a baby off a stranger, and i have NEVER seen a cold sore that bad. ever. why would they show such an awful picture, that will only make people cringe and grimace, esentially making the situation worse?

What gets me upset about this things is that they call it an STD when all u have to do is freaking kiss someone or touch someone and they can get it. I thought STDs are menat to be passed only through sex! There is quite a few people that are virgins that have Herpes 2!! This doesnt make sense to me.

to LeftLiberalSoCal the only way to prevent getting any form of herpes is by not having sex with anyone and by not kissing anyone/sharing a drink with anyone! my boyfriend and i always used protection, he cheated on me, and guess what?! i now have herpes even though i took all the precautions to prevent it. Using a condom wont fully protect you. You should try to do your research first and educate yourself before posting such an ignorant comment.

If you've ever had a cold sore on your lip - you already have herpes. Not that big a deal really. It's the stigma that makes it hard for people. There are many worse things to have. But if you've ever kissed someone with a cold sore, or if they go down on you when they have one, you can end up with it down there too. You'd be very unlucky to catch it off the toilet seat - but then there are far worse things you can catch off a toilet seat so I wouldn't sitting on on them for other reasons.

licking, touching, pretty much any skin to skin contact, expecially if that person has an outbreak

I had a single sore that I thought was herpes, during the time I got tested I realized how much it can affect your life and I learned to accept it... it's not funny. Even though my tests came back negative, I wen through an emotional rollercoaster for a month and I concluded that it's not that big of a deal. There are much worse things in life than a few blisters. If I love a girl I wouldn't mind getting herpes from her.
