The client is receiving an antiviral medication for genital herpes. Which statement, made by the client, would indicate that client teaching for this condition has been successful?

1. Neither topical nor systemic drug prevents transmission of herpes to other individuals.

2. I will cleanse the affected areas with soap and water every other day.

3. I should wear tight-fitting clothes over affected areas to prevent spread of the infection.

4. I should start the antiviral therapy after the lesion forms a crust.
