About 56% of people between the ages of 14 and 49 are infected with HSV 2 in the US. Also, the ELISA test that is used for screening testing for herpes simplex misses 1-2 out of 10 infections with HSV 1. It is not as good as the HSV 2 test that picks up 97% of infections if the waiting time from exposure to testing is observed (12-16 weeks).

I know you are worried right now, but I believe this worry will pass if you give it some time.

We have used all the questions in your subscription. If you have more questions, you can certainly renew your subscription.
