Herpes via sharing cannabis in tobacco
Hello. I recently relapsed and smoked with an individual who may had just performed oral sex to another individual briefly before meeting me. The cannabis was rolled in tobacco. Will this put me at risk for contacting hsv1. Does saliva transmit the virus?

No, just like in your other answers, this is not an efficient way of transmitting herpes.
First, if the person had just performed oral on someone else (which you don't know to be fact), he wouldn't have enough time to even become infected in order to be infectious.
Second, herpes isn't transmitted by saliva. It's transmitted by direct contact with a sore, like kissing.
It sounds like you have a lot of anxiety about herpes, or perhaps germs. Have you considered getting some help for this? I say that only with compassion, as there is help available for this, and you don't have to live in such fear.
