Question:
Does anyone know if each diagnosed case of herpes is reported to the Center for Disease Control? Someone told me that my doctor has to report me to the CDC. And if they do have to report it, does anyone know what information is reported? Goodness gracious, please don't tell me that Uncle Sam is in my bedroom too!:mad:

Answer:
not sure, i think it has to be but i dont think everyone does it.
i just had a look at my "conditions" and it didnt list herpes, or anything infact, so i dont think i was reported. i think the places like planned parent hood and clinics usually report people since they are funded. but a private doctor prob doesnt waste him time doing that.

~~~heres some info- herpes is not on the list woo-hoo.

Answer:
How do you check and see if your name is on the "list" ?

Answer:
that was a chance thing, i happened to be able to see the comp at the pharmacy, you might be able to look at your info online if you register at the stores website.
