Transmission II
Thanks, Ibizan, for your response. But for further clarification (and peace of mind), I offer this scenario: Say a friend contracts HPV orally (via oral-genital route). Can she then transfer the virus onto an inanimate object, such as a glass or chapstick, and thus infect others through these now contaminated objects, assuming they can be contaminated as such? I ask for further clarification after having read that transmission can occur from contaminated underwear or a swimsuit bottom. Thanks again!
Thanks again! Cheers!
Definitely not.......docs confim this in the Experts Forum.ashastd.org good website for all std's...check it out!
I, then, assume that transmission is not possible via chapstick and/or a glass?
LMAO!transmission from wet clothing?oh no way!what misinformation abounds on HPV!
