Czech Industry Community Issue Statement on HIV Alert, Production Hold

On behalf of an alliance of Czech Republic-based agents, producers and performers, producers Tarra White and Jonathan “JT” Todd have issued a statement to the adult industry media regarding the recently confirmed positive test for HIV in Spain. The statement also addresses the subsequent European production hold.

The full statement from the Prague coalition follows:

In light of the recent positive HIV case, confirmed on the 13th Feb., Czech adult industry agents, producers and performers came together in the evening of Tuesday, 19th Feb., to lay the foundation (for) an alliance of the Czech adult industry.

From our meeting, the following points were voted on and we are releasing the following statement:

– The Czech Republic will hold quarantine until a minimum of 13th March 2019. This is 28 days from HIV confirmation.

– Performers will need to show two consecutive negative tests for HIV before they can start to shoot again.

– Moving forward, we will only accept performers’ tests that are a maximum of 14 days old.

– We will continue with our current forms of testing, which will include HIV-2, from a list of approved clinics.

– To make performers aware of the drug PrEP and (to urge) them to consult with their own doctors about the possible benefits of taking this drug.

It is our intention, by creating this alliance, that we provide the safest environment and best practices, not only for our Czech actors and producers, but also for the many foreigners coming to the Czech Republic.

Dan Leal, CEO of Immoral Productions, first alerted the industry to a potential HIV-positive test via a community message board earlier this month and called for the production hold. Leal is currently based in Budapest.

The Free Speech Coalition (FSC) currently based in Budapesthas also weighed in regarding this issue. Read the organization’s statement here.
