"The measure also applies to those who give blood without telling the blood bank that they are HIV-positive." This is crazy

what in the fuck

of course its total insanity.

but we wouldn't want to stigmatize people maniacs who knowingly spread HIV.
or something

Intentionally spreading it is a felony. Unintentionally spreading it is no longer (reduced to misdemeanor). I'm not in favor of this legislation at all but it's not as insane as y'all are making it out to be. Handcuffs and I had a rather long discussion about the situation a few months ago.

the discussion was literally aids

How does one unintentionally spread HIV?

This bill isn't about unintentionally spreading it. That would be different. This bill is insane. You're changing someone's life in a negative way forever on purpose without warning them.

Makes sense to me tbh. If you take reasonable precautions and still end up infecting someone then that sucks (and should be very rare) but you shouldn't be prosecuted.

Unaware that you're a carrier or using medication that has an extremely low rate of transmittance. The study Handcuffs linked me last time was pretty spectacularly complete...but I didn't save it because I never actually thought this would happen LOL. There are very very effective inhibitors, the problem is that they're expensive and what is a healthcare?
