No body created herpes. Herpes has been around since at least 2500 BC but wasn't properly documented until the 1800s and not founded to be a virus until the 1930's / 1940s.

Herpes is caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV), which can be transmitted through close personal contact with an infected individual. There are two main types of HSV: HSV-1, which typically causes oral herpes, and HSV-2, which typically causes genital herpes.
