TRPWL has received information that on two different dates this past week the performer in question tested positive at different Los Angeles area PASS testing facilities, so it’s now clear that this case is not a false positive.
TRPWL has also learned that the patient’s last clean test was in mid-November, and his previous clean test was late October.
Medical protocols require that all of the patient’s sexual contacts be reviewed as far back as 15 days prior to their last clean test. Because, since the FSC’s call for uniform 14 day testing, the patient maintained his testing status with the PASS system, and seemingly adhered to a testing regime of under 28 days, the list of relevant sexual exposures is greatly reduced.
Other evidence, including the date the patient became symptomatic, tends to indicate that the patient’s date of infection was very recent. TRPWL has received reports that the patient has recently been canceling shoots, arousing curiosity, and later suspicion, among producers.
It worthwhile to note that under the PASS 14-day testing regime, the patient was not cleared for work since late November. Only producers who would accept 28-day old tests would have considered hiring the patient during the period between the his November test’s “14 day Availability” end date and the date of his first positive test.
Despite initial reports that the patient is a male performer out of Florida, the patient is in fact a California-based seasoned male performer in straight porn who, in the past, has also shot scenes with males and transexuals.
The Free Speech Coalition (FSC) called for a production moratorium Friday after one of the testing facilities in its PASS testing system reported a positive HIV test for an adult performer. According to FSC CEO Diane Duke, the organization decided “to err on the side of caution” and call for a complete moratorium on production while research is conducted to determine whether any other performers may have been exposed.
An FSC spokesperson told the Los Angeles Times that there is nothing to suggest the case is linked the Cameron Bay / Rod Daily infections from earlier this year.
An FAQ about STIs, Testing and Moratoriums
Crossovers shouldn’t be performing in Straight porn. Nothing bigoted about that.
No, there is. There’s nothing inherently unsafe about so-called “crossovers.” Anyone can be safe and anyone can be unsafe. I live in West Hollywood, and I know many gay men and transexuals who are far more dedicated to their sexual health than 90% of club girls I’ve run into.
Also, “straight porn” is a misnomer, because it includes girl/girl, boy/girl/boy and various other permutations that aren’t ‘According to Hoyles’ “straight.”
I believe that performers/models owe a duty to each other, and I’m for performers/models having information to make informed decisions about their bodies and their health.
So what youre saying is is that people like Christanxxx, Seth Gamble, Ryan Driller, Wolf Hudson and Danny Wylde, Chad Diamond are safe and pose no potential threat to the porn industry?

I think I am over HIV infections in porn. Maybe if a big name chick caught it I’d be interested.
We need another Fake Cancer outbreak to liven things up.
Those who have followed recent social research have observed a troubling rise in high risk behavior among both men and women in their private lives. I suspect these cases we’re seeing are more likely results of that trend than an indicator of some problem with the system. This won’t prevent those bent on doing away with the existing safeguards from pointing to these episodes as proof that those safeguards don’t work when, in fact, they prove just the opposite. It’s already pretty clear that the latest case was caught early and there will be few if any dangerous contacts within… Read more »
