A member asked:
If 2 partners test negative for herpes by a blood test is it 100% true they do not have it ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really: The labs aren't 100% sensitive or specific. But if neither partner has had symptoms, there's no reason to believe the couple is infected. Wondering why you ask. Best wishes.
