Dentists don’t get whitlow any more because they wear gloves, but when they used to get whitlow because they didn’t wear gloves, it was likely because they had a break in the skin of the hand or broke the skin while doing a dental procedure with those sharp instruments. In your situation, virus just doesn’t seep through barriers in sufficient quantities probably to reach your hand much less get inside your hand. People often ask this question about virus seeping through clothing with vaginal lubrication or semen. It just doesn’t happen. And remember that the virus has to 1) be present in sufficient quantities to be infectious and 2) there has to be a vulnerable entry point in the skin. You had neither.
Even if you had whitlow, which you don’t, there would need to be an actual outbreak on the hands to be infectious to others. While the genital skin is very thin and virus can come out with much tissue barrier, with the thick skin of the hands, the virus has no way to get out. That’s why virus is not shed from thighs or buttocks in the genital region either.
Yes, you would only shed virus from the genital area and if infected orally, very rarely from the mouth. And NO, if you are infected genitally or orally you don’t shed virus from your hands. Completely different nerve group.
