A member asked:
Can you get hpv if sex with someone who got vaccine that week?
11 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not from the vaccine: You can not get hpv as a result of the vaccine, either from the vaccine or from someone who had the vaccine. If the person who got the vaccine already has hpv, they could still transmit the virus even after having the vaccine.

Yes: Getting recently vaccinated does not render one incapable of transmitting hpv.
