This site has been preapproved by moderator1 for addition to the Resource Links.

This website is an amazing resource for advanced information about herpes in general, but what really impressed me was the extensive, detailed information about testing methods. Blood testing, swab testing and how some medical labs may not process the tests in the standard ways. It also has in-depth info about what herpes is, how it's transmitted, and its implications for pregnant women.

It seems to be intended as a resource site for doctors, so it might be a bit confusing if you're just starting to learn about all this, but it could be very helpful to anyone who knows a certain amount about herpes and wants detailed information. Also, if anyone has a doctor who seems poorly informed or out-of-date about the medical facts, you could refer him/her to this site.
