My roommate is technically a virgin, but
has somehow contracted hpv (warts) through
genital contact nonetheless. I know this
may sound a bit ignorant, but as her
roommate and someone who shares the
bathroom with her, should I take any
precautions?
In other words, are there cases of
nonsexual transmission of hpv?
Thanks!

You should be fine.But a few areas of
caution need to be considered.Do not share
the same bar of soap or wash cloths or
towels.Keep your personal items just for
yourself!Unless you come into contact with
an open sore and then touch your vaginal
area or mouth or eyes(yuck!!!),you should
not have a problem.I would also use
antibacterial wipes on the toilet,just for
peace of mind.Good luck to you both.

U have no reason to be scared of it at
all. What that person said is bs. U cant
catch it like that. The only way u can is
through sexual contact and that is it.
Its safe to drink after that person or
whatever
