A member asked:
If hpv dna can be detected in blood, how come hpv can't be transmitted via blood? sorry if this is a stupid question?

It is not a stupid question. There is some controversy now about whether HPV can be transmitted through blood. Previously it was thought not to. Research is ongoing.

DNA does not necessarily mean intact virus that can be transmitted.
