Can deep kissing or fingering a woman transfer Hepatitis B or C

Yesterday I was with a new girl friend, we exchanged deep kissing and I fingered her vagina then wiped my fingers with a tissue, but forget to wash my hands and ate.
Any risk from Hepatitis B or C transmission?

The is the hep c community for hep B try your question in the Hep B community. Or best option ask your doctor.

As to hep c it is a blood borne infection requiring hep c infected blood to enter the blood stream of an uninfected person.

From what you have described there is no risk of hep c infection. If concerned wait 2 months and get tested for hep c antibodies.

Also in the future, to avoid such concerns try using barrier protection like latex gloves, condoms and dental dams to avoid the risk of any STD especially HIV.
