People who have been vaccinated often test positive. There are ~120 types of HPV; the vaccine covers only the 9 types that cause 90% of genital warts, cancer, and dysplasia; others often are present. And someone can test positive for a vaccine type caught before being vaccination. Even if pos, husband probably would test neg. Search online for more info www.cdc.gov/std, www.ashasexualhealth.org
