Ew.

I just went through the main menu to get here and under the "Our Community is Sponsored By" ads was a big ad for Zovirax.

Nothing says wedding planning quite like cold sore meds. Ew.

  • At least it's not Valtrex.  Herp is the perfect representative for everlasting love. Although, I realize cold sores are a form of herpes.  Aren't they?

  • Apparently one of my students wrote "The Herpes Song".  It starts off to the melody of the Moonlight Sonata and then switches to Heart and Soul.  I tried not to listen...I'm sure it was hilarious, but it just didn't seem appropriate.  I hate that I can't be myself sometimes!

    Cold sores and Herpes are caused by the same virus. It's just a different strain of the virus, a simplex vs complex strain. Most people in the world have/have been exposed to the strain that causes cold sores. Even if you have never had one the chances of you carrying the virus are higher than you not carrying the virus.

    Having a cold sore does not = having genital herpes.

    Just thought I would clear that up.
