The herpes family of viruses can have a surprising upside ? it can protect against the bubonic plague and other bacterial contagions, at least in mice.

The herpes viruses spur the immune system to boost levels of a protein hormone called interferon gamma "that in effect puts some immune system soldiers on yellow alert, causing them to patrol for invaders with their eyes wide open and defense weapons ready," Virgin said.

New pickup lines for the herpes infected?

"Hey baby, wanna get immunized tonight?"

Scientists are baffled by this occurence. Says one researcher "I'm amazed by the fact that not even one of them could get it on with a skanky chick."

Well that depends if you're looking for free immunizations or if you're willing to pay for the "treatment".

Hmmm... instead of getting sores all over crotch I'll just stick to antibiodics if I happen to come down with bubonic plague.
