EXCELLENT site for HSV/herpes info

The above is a great site for info on Herpes/HSV.
E.g
How is genital herpes passed on?
Genital herpes is passed on through skin contact with a person infected with the virus, most frequently during sex. The virus affects the areas where it enters the body. This can occur during:
* vaginal sex
* anal sex
* oral sex (HSV-1 or HSV-2)
* kissing (HSV-1 only)
Herpes is most infectious during the period when itchy sores start to appear on the skin during an outbreak. But even if an outbreak causes no visible symptoms or breaks in the skin, there is still a risk of the virus being passed on to another person through skin contact.
