    Most effective is to get a vaccine before being exposed to Measles ffs.

    Why do you think we give herpes vaccines to pre-teens? It’s not because we are expecting them to be sexually active, it’s because it works better before they are exposed.

      Just a minor correction: There is no herpes vaccine. It’s the HPV vaccine you’re thinking of.

      Would be nice to get a herpes vaccine, but they’re not there yet.
