Not likely: I guess depends on whether you mean a baby's diaper or adult's diaper. Either way is very unlikey. But especially with a baby - it is very difficult for a baby to catch HPV. Usually virus is transmitted through vaginal or anal intercourse, or oral sex.

HPV can be passed even when an infected person has no signs or symptoms if concerned see your doc-
