Can HSV-2 without visible outbreak be a vector for blood borne diseases.

o_g
Hi,
Condom tore during vaginal sec with CSW. Got tested at 12 weeks:
HIV/Hep-B/Hep-C: negative
Herpes: positive(low positive)

Q1. Need to know if it is possible to get infected with herpes & hep-c simultaneously during vaginal sex in absence of visible blood/lesions or sores

Q2. Is it possible to get a hsv-2 carrier infected with hep-c without visible sores/lesions.

I am posting this in STD forum as the transmitting vector is herpes. I am aware that HCV is blood borne disease but wanted to discuss about the environmental factors for transmission of hcv during sex.

Thanks...

hepatitis related questions need to be asked in the hepatitis forum. we don't deal with those here.

I will gladly take a look at your herpes test results if you haven't posted them already .
