Manicure gave Portland customer genital herpes virus, lawsuit alleges

A$ million lawsuit claims a customer contracted the genital herpes virus while getting a manicure at a Portland salon that had poor hygiene practices. The suit, filed last week in Multnomah County Circuit Court, states that the 23-year-old Portland woman went to the PDX Nails salon near Northeast 122nd and Glisan Street to get an acrylic nails manicure in June 2023. The suit states that the nail technician didn’t wear gloves and stored drill bits used as part of the manicure in an Altoids tin.
