International Herpes Week

 

Due to funding issues, there are currently no plans to run an International Herpes Week Campaign during 2008. If anyone is interested in sponsoring this activity or can provide any financial support to the IHA please contact the Secretariat via herpes@packeforbes.com

The theme for this year’s International Herpes Week is “Treatment and testing better than ever” and it will run from Sunday 29th July through to Saturday 4th August 2007. Our primary objectives this year are to increase awareness and understanding of the range of effective treatments available to manage genital herpes and to reassure people that there have been further improvements in detecting the condition. So if anyone suspects they have genital herpes now is the time to act for effective tests and treatment.

Our press release and poster/display materials are now available for you to download from this website. We hope that you use these materials to help spread this year’s campaign message to your own support groups and to upload onto your websites.

If you would like to get involved in this year’s International Herpes Week or already have plans underway then do tell us about them contacting us at our email address: herpes@packerforbes.com
