2. There is now a drug that PREVENTS you from catching HIV. And it is also one pill a day.
Why aren't the folks in porn valley looking into the use of this drug? Future problems would be solved. Here is an article I just found that is about the drug being used to prevent syringe using drug addicts from catching HIV.
If you read down a couple of paragraphs you will see that they discuss how it already is being used to prevent HIV in high risk sexual areas (gay communities, etc.) during sexual intercourse.
I think the "powers that be" should make the industry standard to have all performers taking this one pill a day preventative AND testing.
That would be a one-two punch that would put an end to this stupidity.

While it sounds like a great preventative measure....the article mainly speaks about intravenus drug users. Also a second artricle, says this, " if people don?t take the drugs consistently, they could develop what is known as resistant virus -- infections that defy the use of drugs. " I'm sure this could lead to its own set of problems.
