Low risk: Visit this site for information on this topic: https://www.cdc.gov/std/herpes/stdfact-herpes-detailed.htm Have a healthy diet, exercise 30 minutes/day, drink plenty of water daily so your urine is mostly colorless, have safe sex, no tobacco alcohol weed or street drugs. For nutrition: http://www.choosemyplate.gov/. Get HPV and Covid vaccines. Wish you good health!

No risk, no worry: Neither HSV2 nor any other STD is ever transmitted by hand-genital contact.
