I'm trying to figure out if herpes could be passed by the cook in a restaurant? More specificly a fast food restaurant. I eat at them almost everyday a was curious if maybe the cook who prepars the item has herpes and accidently spit as he were talking or touched his mouth and then touched your food. Would that be a likely case to spread the herpes virus. or what about if someone who sat at a table before you had herpes and then ate with a fork and the waiter put the fork back on the table without it being competley washed, then you used that fork. Is it possible to get it now? Maybe I am just being a hypercondriact, but i eat out a lot and find myself wondering if diseases like herpes or any std could be spread through the food.. thanks...

Herpes doesn't typically survive in the air. It requires skin to skin contact. So, if an infected person eats with a fork and puts it down and you pick it up and eat with it, it most likely won't pass. Same goes with the spit. But, if you kiss that person directly on the lips, there is a highl likelihood that it will pass.

LOGICALLY. THE ONLY WAY THAT. I CAN SEE THIS BEING A POSSIBILITY IS IF: HE/SHE HAS A HSV-1 ON THE LIPS. OR THE PRIVATE AREA. THAT HAS A OUTBREAK. THE CLEAR WATERYLIKE PUSS. THAT COMES FROM THE LIPS. OR THE OTHER REGION. IS WHAT IS THE MOST CONTAGIOUS. SO FOR INSTANCE. LET'S SAY THAT A COOK MAY BE WORKING. DURING A CRUCIAL TIME OF OUTBREAK. AND THEY TOUCH THE AFFECTED AREA. AND CONTIINUING PREPPING/PREPARING FOOD. WITHOUT WASHING THEIR NASTY *** HANDS! THEN I CAN SEE THIS AS BEING A FEASIBLE POSSIBILITY. IT'S FUNNY THAT YOU POSE THIS QUESTION. BECAUSE WHEN I SHAKE A PERSON'S HAND. I ALWAYS WONDER WHERE. THOSE GRIMY HANDS HAVE BEEN. OTHERWISE IF YOU AREN'T ******* THE COOK. SKIN TO SKIN PER SAY. THEN DON'T FRET ABOUT IT.
