A member asked:
Can somebody get hpv after 2 people having sex who have hpv and then touch the sink excetra?

Generally not: Hpv is spread primarily by direct sexual contact. Like other sexually transmitted diseases, it would be unlikely to get the disease from touching a surface such as a sink or toilet. Always use good safer sex practices.

HPV: It appears that you are worried about hpv. Hpv is transmitted by direct contact either sexually or non-sexually. It can be transferred from you to you or from you to some one. It does not survive well on other surfaces.
