How is Genital Herpes Transmitted

Question

How is genital herpes transmitted?
A) Hot tubs contaminated with HSV
B) Towels used by people with HSV infection
C) Contaminated toilet seats
D) Sexual contact with secretions from infected sites

Accepted Answer

Genital herpes is mainly transmitted through sexual contact with secretions from an infected person's blisters, sores, or moist skin. The other options are unlikely modes of transmission due to the virus being fragile outside the human body and quickly dying off on surfaces.
