Is there any risk for genital herpes?

Hello,

I don't know if I'm sounding a little bit paranoic about this, but I have to make this question...Today I parked my car on a site where there's a man who helps people parking cars ( I don't know what is the word you use to describe this guys in english, because I am Portugal) and I gave him some change for the help with my right hand. About 5 minutes later I washed my hands and about 30 minutes later I came back home and washed again my hands. Three hours after I went to the bathroom to take a leak and I touched my penis with my right hand....Is there any risk for genital herpes?

Thanks

No risk. This is the same for any question related to non contact with an infected person.

You have asked a similar question previously and it was answered. You know full well it takes direct contact for any chance of herpes transmission. Please review this information and think about how it applies to all circumstances in daily life.
