Do you die from genital herpes, or do you just have it until you die? Little confused.

genital herpes is not fatal, but it is life long. So NO it won't kill you, but there will be times when you wish you were dead. It is very uncomfortable when you have an outbreak, and there is a real social stigma attached to having it.

I got clinically diagnosed with the herpes simplex virus (type 2) about six years ago, when I was still attending college and had a stupid one-night stand. I just made a massive mistake that one time and suddenly I felt like I was going to have to live with the consequences for the rest of my life. The worst part was feeling I could never date guys again. In the end, who wants to go out with someone that has sores around her you-know-what? But since a friend shared this video everything changed https://tr.im/cureHERPES2015nM6g
Not only was I able to clear away all traces of the hsv from my body in less than 21 days, but I was also able to begin dating once more. I even met the man of my dreams. This method provided me the opportunity to be happy and experience real love. Now I want to enable you too by sharing this with the whole World.

No- you cannot die from it. At this point there is not a cure- only treatment. A vaccine to prevent herpes infection is not available at this time, but several are being studied and may be available soon. Currently certain antiviral medications are used for treatment. These can relieve symptoms, shorten the length of outbreaks, and prevent some recurrent outbreaks.

Babies can die from it.
Genital herpes can cause recurrent painful genital sores in many adults, and herpes infection can be severe in people with suppressed immune systems. Regardless of severity of symptoms, genital herpes frequently causes psychological distress in people who know they are infected.
In addition, genital HSV can cause potentially fatal infections in babies.
It is important that women avoid contracting herpes during pregnancy because a first episode during pregnancy causes a greater risk of transmission to the baby. If a woman has active genital herpes at delivery, a cesarean delivery is usually performed. Fortunately, infection of a baby from a woman with herpes infection is rare.
Herpes may play a role in the spread of HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Herpes can make people more susceptible to HIV infection, and it can make HIV-infected individuals more infectious.

I have NEVER heard of anybody dieng from herpes. As of now: you do have it forever but may be symptom free. It can lay in a dormant state or you may have active infections all the time. From what I understand it is just like having a cold sore but in a different area.
