Brief Answer:
Very minial if not Zero!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
The chances that you contract HPV from this are very minimal and close to zero. If it were this easy to transmit the infection, then almost everyone else would have had the infection through simple handshake with others in our everyday's life.
There is no point in getting worried here. Be calm and relaxed about this.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Thanks for using our services this day for your health related questions.

Brief Answer:
Please, there is absolutely minimal risk!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I will like that you express whether you have always been this worried about infections in the past or this is the very first time?
The risk here is almost zero if not zero. Being worried despite reassurance after a careful evaluation of the risk is makes me concerned about what the cause of your fear is.
In all, it is close to ZERO. Feel free, go ahead and interact with your family and the public without fear of endangering or contaminating anyone.
I wish you well. I hope this helps.

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thanks for this follow up.
You can always decide on whether to free yourself from a worrisome situation after getting full assurance from a physician or to stay chained to the worry. I have evaluated this risk carefully and there is no reason to get worried. all physicians would have gotten this if that is how simple it got to contract this illness.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Stay calm and relaxed.
