It is definitely a bigger problem than most people realize. Realistically, there isn't much we can do about it. Herpes isn't the only disease that's being effected in this way -- I can assure you of that. Welcome to America -- the best country in the world, but FAR from being perfect.

True.

With Valtrex commericals coming on every 22 seconds, I really do not feel there is an effort from drug companies to create a vaccination. Sadly, there is a lot less money in curing a disease versus handling it. What makes the scenario even worse, Valtrex is not even a one-hundred percent guard against passing H. I'm sure millions are paying outrageous amounts of money for this drugs that do not even provide full protection.

H has become the untouchable virus. It will not kill you, so lets not worry about it since most people do not even realize they have it. This seems like the average drug companies idea towards H. I hope I do not seem so negative.

I don't think you are too negative.
