Dear Dr. Rob:

Can a person with genital herpes still be an organ donor?

---

Dr Rob’s Response:

Dear Poster Who Asks about Being an Organ Donor:

Yes, a person with genital herpes can be an organ donor.
Herpes is present in the Perineal area and in the nerves
associated with it, and the not in the bloodstream.
