Can Herpes be transmitted non-sexually?

Can Herpes be transmitted non-sexually?I heard that Herpes is present in Saliva.
So I'm wondering if someone who has Herpes coughs, would he transmit the infection to you?

im pretty sure you cant get it from saliva but it is the same virus that causes a cold sore on your mouth so be careful if you have oral sex.

I think any direct contact with an herpes infection like:
Kissing, touching or caressing actively infected areas

Sexual contact (vaginal, oral, or anal sex)

Cold sores or mouth herpes can be spread by sharing the same drinking glass, lipstick, cigarette, etc.

Ashley
yes.
