Sexually. The other ways are by sharing needles with an infected person and being born to an infected mother. Transfusions have caused HIV infection, but with modern blood screening, that is statistically insignificant.

The most common way people get herpes is through kissing. If you ever seen / had a cold sore then those are caused by oral herpes. They are often passed by being innocently kissed by some one that has them. The second most common way to get herpes is through having intercourse with a partner that is infected with herpes.

You can also get herpes by receiving oral sex. If you receive oral sex from some one that has a viible cold sore.

There is also a small chance of getting oral herpes from sharing things like cups or utensils with soem one that has a visible cold sore.

The most common way to get pregnant or to become infected with an STD is to have unprotected skin-to-skin contact or intercourse with a person of the opposite sex. To become pregnant, both parties must be "fertile" at the time of intercourse. To acquire an STD, there must be skin-to-skin contact with an infected person. For example, a person may have genital warts but if both persons keep their clothes on and do not have any unprotected skin-to-skin contact, the uninfected person will not become infected.

This would be having sex with someone else that's infected now or giving a person oral sex that would be the other way of contracting the std.

How common is oral herpes?

Genital herpes, also known as HSV-2, is a common sexually transmitted disease. According to the Centers for Disease Control, about one in six persons in the US has genital herpes, or 16.2%. However, as many as 90% of those infected are unaware that they have the virus. This is because many people have never have symptoms, or very mild symptoms that go unrecognized. Genital herpes is more common among females affecting approximately 1 out of 5 women. Genital herpes affects about 1 in 9 men. It is more likely for an infected male to transmit genital herpes to his female partner than from an infected female to her male partner. The only way to know whether you have genital herpes is to get tested. You should speak to your health care practitioner for advice. There are also numerous commercial health-care solutions available on the internet.
