Fear Of Getting Herpes After Sharing A Dirty Bong. Any Suggestions?

Hi, so I keep scaring myself into thinking o have herpes and I know that I probably don't but I shared a bong with a couple of friends. The bong looked really dirty & my friend said it was his brother's girlfriend's. I was told that by the time it reached me again the virus would of died out but I'm still scared
