It's possible. People with herpes can be more suceptable to getting HIV because it can pass more easily through open sores or blisters. So some one with herpes should abstain from having sex while they have any signs of a break out. But just so you know because some one has genital herpes that doesn't always mean they have HIV too.

What is the difference between HIV-1 and HIV-2?
AnswerAlthough HIV-1 and HIV-2 are closely related, they are thought to have jumped from primates to humans at different times (and from different species).HIV-1 is by far the more virulent of the two species of HIV.Because HIV-1 is more easily transmitted, it also spreads more readily and therefore accounts for the vast majority of global HIV infections.HIV-2, because it is much less transmittable, is largely confined to West Africa (where it is thought to have originated) and to West African migrant communities in Europe.HIV-1 also mutates more efficiently that HIV-2 and generally progesses to AIDS at a significantly faster rate than HIV-2 does.Also, HIV-2 has Vpr and Vpx proteins. HIV-1 has only Vpr. Differences between these proteins are actually on research.
