Close skin to skin contact of the genital area, it says, and the risk from hand-to-genital transmission is extremely low. How much of a virgin are you if you've had everything but penetration?

Sometimes. If you have an HPV related cervical cancer and claim you're a virgin they're not really going to believe it.
Also, about the smoking: lying about it won't always work because they have noses and you're going to be wanting to take cigarette breaks during your hospital stay. If you quit smoking a while ago you're likely to mention it because quitting is a positive thing.

Yeah, I know and the strict Christians refused vaccination based on the virgin principle too.
But still the doctors I know would want some explanation about that virginity, and consider oral sex 'sexually active' for example.
