Hi- Can a woman infected with HPV transmit the virus to her partner through oral sex? Also, can the virus be transmitted to her partner's fingers? Thanks

I don't think that HPV infect other sites than genitalia

I believe the HPV virus is transmitted more easily to a mucus membrane rather than to hard skin. If so, isn't the mouth/lips considered mucus membrane and is therefore easily transmittable thru contact of an infected vagina? Would you say that after 2 years a person is immune to the virus and is no longer contagious? Thanks again!
