AITA (the Adult Industry Trade Association) are pleased to confirm that the UK adult performer that tested positive for HIV in initial testing has undertaken a second test with negative HIV results. This performer is therefore confirmed clear of HIV and other sexual diseases.We would like to thank the UK Adult Industry for such a rapid response following AITA’s request for all UK production work to be suspended until the results for the second test were received.
AITA have now set up a sexual health sub-committee in order to examine whether industry testing and sexual health procedures are adequate to deal with future, genuine HIV outbreaks. We urge all industry members who are not already AITA members to join and help make the association a stronger, better-funded body that can best represent the needs of the industry. Please direct all membership enquiries to [email protected].
The industry-wide suspension can now be lifted. Although this case turned out to be a false alarm, we suggest that any performers concerned about their health get a new test before shooting again.
Best Regards,
The AITA Committee

That was fast. What did it take the last guy in LA who had the false positive to get his tests squared away, a few weeks?
Ya and AITA announced today that its system wasnt good enough (Its modeled after the old AIM/Current FSC Model) and its under review so that they might improve it.
One thing everyone always points out here is what good is early detection if they wont release the names of the people who test positive.
