Can a person with Herpes who works with the public infect by casual contact?
I know a person that works with the elderly that has Herpes, can she give anyone herpes by just casual contact? Such by shaking hands, hugging, or kissing them on the cheeks?

HSV-1 and HSV-2 can be found
HSV-1 and HSV-2 can be found in and released from the sores that the viruses cause, but they also are released between outbreaks from skin that does not appear to have a sore. Generally, a person can only get HSV-2 infection during sexual contact with someone who has a genital HSV-2 infection. Transmission can occur from an infected partner who does not have a visible sore and may not know that he or she is infected.
HSV-1 can cause genital herpes, but it more commonly causes infections of the mouth and lips, so-called “fever blisters.” HSV-1 infection of the genitals can be caused by oral-genital or genital-genital contact with a person who has HSV-1 infection. Genital HSV-1 outbreaks recur less regularly than genital HSV-2 outbreaks. When you have Herpes (HSV-1, HSV-2), HPV (Human Papilloma Virus), HIV/AIDS, or any other STDs, it can make you feel like you are all alone in the world.

Response to Newcomer to Herpes Scene: Don't be mad or scared
You could be mad at yourself, your partner, or the world. Life deals us cards that we don't want at times. Please pray to God and hopefully your anger will cease. Many people in life cope with things that we never know about. Winners have that mentality. Losers blame everyone else. Take a deep breath and keep on living life as you did before you got the disease. Life goes on.
There are many of us out here

Response to Newcomer to Herpes : There are many of us out here
I know that it is not a pleasure for you to have got the disease, but it is not the end of the world. I would probably not tell my family unless you want a pitty party. I may talk with only someone who is close and also with the one whom you may have go it from. You may get your best support from a few. Many people are igonorant about herpes and you don't need that. Cheer up, it will be OK. Don't get angry at yourself or anyone else. No one is to blame. No one will ever know that you have the disease unless you tell them. Telling as few people as possible would be smart. Don't beat yourself up. This is nothing compared to what it could be. There are millions of us living with it.

response to Oral herpes
She can give you herpes through oral sex if she gets it (herpes) on her mouth.
You have to actually come into contact with the infected end.
If she is having blisters on her labia, it is OK for her to put her mouth on your penis/vagina (you didn't specify your gender here), however if you put your mouth on her labia there is a good chance you will get sores on your mouth.
Make sense?
