No. Herpes, whether it’s a whitlow or not, can transfer.

If you have herpetic whitlow, which is a herpes infection of the fingers or hands, it typically does not mean that you won't get symptoms on your genitals. Herpes infections can occur in different parts of the body based on exposure to the virus through contact with an infected area during sexual activity or other means. It's important to practice safe sex and consult with healthcare professionals for proper diagnosis and treatment if you suspect any symptoms related to genital herpes.
