Can HPV be transfer by fingers on to cigarettes?

Hello, The other night I was at a bar and I had to use the bathroom, after doing so I believe I accidentally touched a wart I had on my foreskin. Unfortunately, there was no soap left, so I did not wash my hands. After wards, I rolled a marijuana cigar which I shared with friends. @ the time I didnt pay any mind but I started to get to thinking.... My question is do I have to worry if I transferred hov via my hands to the marijuana we smoked?

Also can hpv be transferred by semen on your hand if it is already dry?

Any help is veey appreciated. Thanks.

And semen does not carry the virus. This is why condoms do not provide much coverage. It doesn't get carried via fluids. Only genital skin or the oral cavity,

Thanks. I also believe the labileness (spellcheck?) Of semen is not very long either
