[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are tons of people that pretty much know they have an std and just don’t get tested. homeless, prostitutes, drug users etc… just because someone doesn’t get tested, it doesn’t mean they don’t know they have it. That is where the “undiagnosed” comes from. If you look it up-in the the majority of cases a person experiences their first outbreak within 3 days of being infected. If someone is walking around not knowing they have HSV-2 it’s because they already know and just dont want a record of it being real. [/quote]

Why do you persist making stuff up?  This is very well documented:

“Studies estimate that up to 90% of those infected with HSV-2 are unaware of their status. Even among people who test positive for HSV-2 antibodies, only about 10 to 40% recall ever experiencing symptoms they associated with herpes. The rest either had no symptoms at all or didn’t recognize them for what they were.”

“The majority of individuals infected with HSV-2 do not realize they have the virus because they have never experienced a recognized symptomatic episode. Seroprevalence studies, which test blood samples for HSV-2 antibodies, consistently show that a large percentage of those who test positive have no history of genital lesions. Based on these studies, it is estimated that approximately 75% to 90% of people with HSV-2 infection are either truly asymptomatic or have symptoms that go unrecognized.

These statistics are derived from epidemiological surveys that measure the prevalence of HSV-2 antibodies in the general population. The presence of these antibodies confirms a past or current infection, regardless of whether the person has ever had an outbreak. This high percentage of seropositive but undiagnosed individuals underscores how frequently the infection presents without the classic, painful blisters associated with herpes.”
