[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Cleveland Clinic says:

"Oral herpes is a viral infection, and the herpes simplex virus (HSV) is the specific virus responsible. There are two types of HSV (HSV-1 and HSV-2). Both types can cause oral herpes, but HSV-1 causes most cases."

A doctor I know also said this. Of course, it is well known that many children test positive for HSV 1, but smaller number of children test positive for HSV-2, which sometimes is transmitted the ways HSV -1 is transmitted (not necessarily through sex).

if a child tests positive for HSV-2 CPS needs to be contacted immediately. [/quote]

An investigation by child protective services probably would be a good idea, but quite a few of the investigations of kids with HSV2 would show that the kid probably was not abused and just got a kiss from a family member or shared a bottle with a kid at school.  Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease but it is also a non-sexually transmitted disease.  Some people get it in their mouths even if their mouths don't touch genitals.  That's all I'm saying.

Only 11% of adults have HSV2. Pls provide data on how many kids have HSV2 since birth. It’s very uncommon and likely cause is sex abuse [/quote]
