Tested positive HSV
So my friend tested positive for Hsv iGg( non type specific test)
Are there any type specific tests available?
And how much is the risk of spreading it in case there are no symptoms

Type specific tests are available and should be done. Asymptomatic individuals may also shed the virus. Still, treatment is given if symptomatic episode occurs
