- LeRenard, on 07/02/2008, -7/+65Where the hell is the article?
- Walcherina, on 07/03/2008, -3/+57"I have genital herpes."
"And I don't." - AlphaBronco, on 01/25/2009, -10/+62Good news for all, especially
1) Those that ***** for sport
2) Those who have already received the "gift that keeps on giving" - inactive, on 07/03/2008, -3/+50I have discovered a Herpes prevention mechanism called Digg.
- danomagnum, on 07/03/2008, -0/+38Good thing, cause I hate cold sores.
- Calibur, on 07/03/2008, -1/+361 in 5 people will be happy about this
- sockpuppets, on 07/03/2008, -7/+36Giggity giggity!
- caederus, on 07/03/2008, -1/+25This goes for oral herpes i.e. cold sores as well. The vast majority of Americans over the age of 40 are infected.
- mediaspree, on 07/03/2008, -1/+25No problem:
http://www.STDmatch.net - BigDrake, on 07/03/2008, -1/+23"I have genital herpes"
"...WTF! And your telling me this now!?!?" - cadmiumpaint, on 07/03/2008, -2/+20Tila Tequilla is relieved....
- mroboy, on 07/03/2008, -0/+18I've discovered one too. It's called "Marriage". Unfortunately it comes with "no sex".
- cosby, on 07/03/2008, -0/+17This drug will probably be expensive as hell. Let's hope it works. I'm another person that's had cold sores since they were a child. Not much you can do about contracting the virus when your family gives it to you through the every day contact of drinking after one another. I just thought of it as a part of life when I was a kid growing up.
Here's to a cure, how nice would that be? - zip000, on 07/03/2008, -1/+17I can't believe that you can search with "no preference" as your std..."ah, I'll take anything, as long as she's got something."
- guytoronto, on 07/03/2008, -1/+16Just one more reason for Paris Hilton to party.
- inactive, on 07/03/2008, -0/+13"And I don't."
...."eh, you may want to check that again. My bad." - SirPopper, on 07/02/2008, -1/+13NPR "Audio for this story will be available at approx. 7:00 p.m. ET"
- ashfish, on 07/03/2008, -0/+11You can still transfer your oral herpes to your partner's genitals.
- BradOFarrell, on 07/03/2008, -1/+12Also good news for normal human beings since it transfers via sex without protection and more people have some kind of herpes than not. Except for virgins I guess. Hi Digg!
- djlethal, on 07/03/2008, -0/+10its audio
- Dan11023, on 07/03/2008, -4/+14This doesn't affect us diggers.
- analogkid01, on 07/03/2008, -4/+14If you got them from your mom, then I'm in big trouble.
- knifesideleft, on 07/03/2008, -0/+10I always felt bad for the people in those herpes commercials. Regardless if you had it or not, being in a commercial isn't going to help your sex life cause everyones going "Hey thats Jared the dude in the herpes commercial." right before you walk up wondering why you never get laid anymore.
- reuscel, on 07/03/2008, -2/+11Oh man this is such great news... for... a lot of people... other than me... who have herpes... because I totally don't.
Ok, I'm gonna go now before this gets even more awkward. - AnonthePyro, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9About time, tired of having oral herpes. Don't need anything else killing what little chance I have for dating.
- Ellipsys, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9HSV-1 is the baby of the herpes family. If this thing works for Epstine-Barr (The common cause for Mono, but it can "reawaken" and be one of the major causes for "chronic fatigue syndrome" and "fibromyalgia"), and HHV-6 (The hardcore herpetic virus that is one of many causes for chronic illnesses. Its also resistant to nearly all antiviral drugs except valgancyclovir.) More information for medically minded folks - http://www.hhv-6foundation.org/%29, then we'll be on to something.
- Nezacant, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9I hate that commercial!
- mrsteveman1, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9Of course, people who use condoms have a latex fetish. They aren't normal.....
- xsecretfiles, on 07/03/2008, -0/+9That is AWESOME, I can continue giving blow jobs safely
- ColorBlind, on 07/03/2008, -2/+10Herpes: The gift that keeps on giving.
- asskey, on 07/03/2008, -1/+9Bet Rutgers University can too (all of the residents have herpes).
- DteK, on 07/03/2008, -2/+10digga please, I got some stank on the ol hang low last night
- hakkola, on 07/03/2008, -1/+9Herpes wakes up? Now that would be the true tyrant alarm clock, hit the snooze button and BAM! Herpes.
- Browzer, on 07/03/2008, -0/+8Those of us who have actually had (and are having) adult relationships are interested in these types of stories.
- piznut, on 07/03/2008, -1/+9Im more of a sprinter than a distance runner.
- klasikahl, on 07/03/2008, -1/+9That's 100% false. Every cold sore is herpes. Canker sores are entirely different, are from an unknown source, and appear to be triggered by stress.
- CCB0x45, on 07/03/2008, -0/+7ummm you can definitely get herpes if you are still wearing a condom, unless you wear some super condom that covers your entire pelvis...
- jehan60188, on 07/03/2008, -1/+8wouldn't that be more 'normal' behavior than wrapping your fun-parts in latex?
- kingmanic, on 07/03/2008, -0/+7If they made it a sport the ratings would go through the roof for that event (or group of events).
- DanBoodro, on 07/03/2008, -0/+6This guy needs to be dugg more than the original digg.
- Dan11023, on 07/03/2008, -1/+7OH YOUS JUST MAD CUZ IM STYLIN ON YA
- dragonet2, on 07/03/2008, -0/+6We had a tragedy among our friends here in Kansas City because of the cold sore virus.
A dear friend who had heart problems all her life, but had managed to keep on going until her early 40s finally got to the top of the list for a heart transplant.
She got her transplant and despite the incision, etc., had a few days of feeling better than she'd ever felt in her life. Then she started having a headache, became comatose and a few days later she died.
She'd forgotten she had cold sores all the time as a child and never told the transplant team about it. Latent HSV-1 is virtually impossible to test for because it hides out in the nervous system.
I still miss her. And I always will. - inactive, on 07/04/2008, -1/+6If you've ever had a cold sore, you have herpes. And yes that probably includes 99.99% of people on earth.
- gradivus, on 07/03/2008, -0/+5Mono sucks. Its like weak AIDs. They really should have stressed how bad that ***** is sometime over the course of school.
- megamod, on 07/03/2008, -1/+6ARTICLE OR IT DIDN'T HAPPEN.
- staunchcentrist, on 07/03/2008, -0/+5Both HSV-1 and HSV-2 can cause genital herpes it's just generally more associated with HSV-2. However the bigger problem here and what most diggers fail to realize is the proposed method of activating and then waiting for the antivirals to kill will not help those who are already infected as the virus is latent in the neuron. While you may be able to bring it out of latency, and antivirals target viral specific replication, the body's response is to kill infected cells. Not a good idea for neurons. Also the body has a slew of mechanisms specifically in place to avoid killing neurons, so it would likely just stick around as it always has without a whole string of other breakthroughs to get the viral DNA out of cells without killing them. Of course an alternate method would be to hyperstimulate the gene supressing viron replication thus perminantly keeping it in latent phase.
