Did you mean you were wearing a glove, and touched a wart? I've heard that the papilloma virus can penetrate latex. You should consider how long was the contact, and did you have broken skin under the latex in the contact point of the wart. Also, was the wart broken (bleeding). My guess is that if your skin was not broken, and the wart was not broken, and especially if the glove and the warted skin were dry, that the chance of contracting something would be negligible. Ask a dermatologist if you are truly worried about whatever you touched. And why not just wash your hands thoroughly after handling diseased surfaces, even if you were wearing gloves. There are anti-viral/anti-bacterial no-rinse hand cleansers available.
If you touch a wart with your bare hand, you have very little chance of catching anything. So, I guess you could say with a latex glove you should be safe. Why don't you sit in on a class on Infection Control? It might help you be less fearful of contact with others.
