How many peiople carry herpes and don't know it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Many: Both men and women can be asymptomatic carriers, although in general, human papilloma virus is much more commonly carried by people in an asymptomatic condition. If you have a question, get tested -- or ask your partner before having sex if they have been tested.
