A member asked:

Can you catch hpv and herpes from blood on the wall by toilet tissue wasn't sure if any was on toilet paper please help very worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Very unlikely: You cannot get HPV or herpes that way. HPV and herpes cannot be spread by touching hard surfaces, like a wall or toilet seat. It also cannot be passed by sharing clothes or towels or by toilet paper near dried blood on a wall.
