FSC Lifts Moratorium, Comments on False Positive

The Free Speech Coalition has issued the following statement concerning the moratorium put in place yesterday and the follow-up tests for the impacted performers. CANOGA PARK, Calif.—Yesterday's potentially positive HIV test by an adult performer was a false positive. The performer does not have HIV.  Additionally, the first generation performers who were tested proactively have also come back negative. Production on adult film can resume safely.  We understand that a moratorium is nerve-wracking for performers and difficult for producers. However, it's essential that when it comes to performer safety, we err on the side of caution. We thank the producers, performers, agents and doctors who worked together during this difficult time for maintaining the moratorium, and for quickly helping establish a list of first generation contacts. While this was a false positive, it is always essential that we remain vigilant in concern to performer health. The moratorium and testing system has enabled us to prevent any transmission of HIV on an adult film set for over ten years. While opponents of the industry often use our periodic moratoriums as evidence that adult sets are not safe, quite the opposite is true. Moratoriums have and continue to enable us to prevent HIV from being transmitted between adult performers. Again, we thank everyone who worked so diligently and concertedly to protect performers during this current moratorium.
