The important and nastiest part of HSV is some strains cause cervical cancer in women, so men with HSV must take care not to spread something that has the potential to kill their partner. There is a vaccine, but it doesn't work 100%.

the vaccine is very effective, and also that’s HPV

Are you sure that you don't mean HPV?

[–] Saryn@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Indeed, the cancer thing applies to women with HPV, a virus that most people have also been affected with (though the vast majority of cases do not lead to cancer which still leaves tens of million of women at risk).

Men can get cancers from HPV too, it's a good idea for everyone to get vaccinated.

[–] ThoGot@lemm.ee 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

And even without the risk of cancer you still just lower the risk for any warts appearing

[–] FartsWithAnAccent@fedia.io 6 points 1 day ago

Or spreading it to others.

Well, yeah, I seem to mess them up - HPV is the one with vaccine, HPS is similar in that it can be a cause of cervical cancer, but the matter is less researched and I don't know about a vaccine.

Nah, cervical cancer is down to such an extent in the vaccinated cohorts that we can confidently say that it was the HPV causing it. Those vaccinations have been a massive, massive success. Much more than expected by public health scientists.

You are both talking about HPV, not HSV.

[–] angrystego@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Yep, sorry, they can both cause cancer, but HPV is the one people can get vaccinated against.
