Hsv is a virus unto itself.
My question is exclusively asking whether the hsv2 virus, since its contracted via skin, can also carry with it other std infections such as hepatitis C that can show up in the body later on? Meaning, can the hsv virus transmit other ailments that the other person has - apart from hsv?
someone with one virus could catch the other. I'm fairly certain that, generally, it takes a few months longer to identify a Hep C infection that HSV2 if someone contracted both around the same time.
