A member asked:

Can you get herpes by sharing a vape with someone if they are having a outbreak?

Possibly: If your friend has an active lesion that comes in contact with the part of the vape that touches your mucous membrane{ lip}, you might contract the virus. If you were to wipe off and cleanse the vape before using it, that transfer would not likely occur.

Sure, it's possible: Oral herpes is considered a universal viral infection among humans, which means that by adulthood the vast majority of humans have caught Herpes type 1 orally. Fortunately, only some people get frequent recurrences (many people do not get recurrences, or seldom get them). Oral antiviral medication treats recurrences. Herpes is spread by contact from person to person, or person to object to person.
