Interesting. I know people who have had Epstein Barr Virus before, but it never "reactivated".
By the same logic, it is exactly the same ethical issue whether or not such persons need to disclose to future partners they have had EBV before?
Seems absurd. We apply the same logic to HSV then. In both cases, there is knowledge. In both cases, there are no symptoms.
What's the difference? Haha

Herpes is overblown. It is very common and the majority of those who have it never even know they caught it but of course for those who suffer recurrent painful attacks it is a disaster.
There are excellent articles at https://herpes.org.uk/ |
