Panama enacted an HIV-specific law in 2000 that places a legal obligation on people who are aware they are living with HIV to disclose to people who may be at risk of infection. It also criminalises ‘intentional’ HIV transmission, although there is no further definition of which specific acts are criminalised. The maximum sentence is five years’ imprisonment. There are no data on the number of prosecutions or convictions.
