Re: Stds
The answer is yes. However, these cases are extremely expensive because the only way to link your particular virus' with his is through DNA testing that costs thousands of dollars. Both viruses have a long latency period. A sexual encounter 20 years before can cause the herpes and you don't know about it for 20 years and all of a sudden it comes out. Therefore, you have to be absolutely certain that you got it from him. William S. Stern
