HIV Outbreak in the Adult Film Industry

It has been reported by L.A.health officials that 16 adult performers, one which was disclosed this week has recently tested positive for HIV. This information however was never released. The last known outbreak of such occurred back in 2004 in which 6 people were affected. This brings the total number of HIV cases in the industry to 22and counting. Yes we said it and counting. Even more disturbing, is the fact that the most recent infectee, a female porn actress first tested positive June 4, and worked the following day according to the LA Times.

Dr. Colin Hamblin, AIM's medical director. She worked the following day -- June 5 - for reasons Hamblin said are still being investigated. A second positive result came back June 6. And the clinic is awaiting results of a third and final confirmatory test, he said.

Did we mention the counting factor earlier? Well we hinted at that because reports suggest that this actress has relations with other partners since then, including her own boyfriend. You know what that means. Can someone say aah!!

Can someone explain to me why these "professionals" don't use condoms? Why not just use a glove to protect yourselves? They are engaging in scenes with people they don't even know. Maybe the industry needs to spend some of their mega dollars on sex education for their workers. Otherwise there will be no more employees to be had.
