Are you sure? Many people with it don't exhibit symptoms, and it sometimes won't show up on a standard STD test - you usually have to request it.

Very conspiracy worthy post.

Basically there is no cure. The remedy is to keep one's immune system strong in order to prevent viral outbreaks.

The most common causes of a weak immune system are: sugar, smoking, junk food, wheat, sunburn, over-work, stress, and many pharmaceuticals.

"Genital herpes is a chronic, life-long viral infection. Two types of HSV can cause genital herpes: HSV-1 and HSV-2. Most cases of recurrent genital herpes are caused by HSV-2, and approximately 50 million persons in the United States are infected with this type of genital herpes (318). However, an increasing proportion of anogenital herpetic infections have been attributed to HSV-1 infection, which is especially prominent among young women and MSM (319-321)."

Nope, you're stuck with it. If it makes you feel better, as much as 90% of the population has it, even if they don't exhibit symptoms.
