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 admin@aita.co.uk.
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

Now if only more people in the general population got tested frequently instead of relying on the fig leaf of condom use, we might get somewhere with stemming the spread of HIV and all STIs.
It’s notable that the folks who constantly promote the use of condoms — flimsy pieces of latex with an estimated 15% failure rate and which do not cover all areas that some STIs affect — make the vast majority of their income selling costly AIDS drugs.
