Just when you think that a celebrity's life cannot possible get any better, you should be aware that there are dozens of celebrities with herpes.
A virus that spares no one
Herpes is commonly known as a sexually transmitted disease because it is more commonly transmitted through unprotected sex. The herpes virus can either infect the mouth or the genitals. Both oral and genital herpes are permanent-meaning you will be a carrier for the rest of your life once you are infected. The good news is there are now plenty of medications and treatments available that can help you prevent an outbreak.
