Just because a girl is new doesn't mean she hasn't worked.

She's doing privates, blowing guys off backpage. They allude to a pool of some sort. Who's that consist of?

There should totally be a moratorium if the girl is brand new.

I get it. My post was more me thinking out loud (with my conspiracy theory hat on) wondering if that is what they always try to go with in hopes that people (and the media) don't run too far with it.

Seems like every time there is news about an STI, it starts with it being "someone new" and only later everyone finds out they actually have 45 scenes under their belt.

Quote:

The identity of the third infected porn star remains unknown right now, but an industry insider exclusively tells Radar, ?A dozen female performers have been quarantined as a result of exposure.?

The insider also claims the unnamed actor worked for major studios and the positive HIV test was reported by a PASS-affiliated [Performer Availability Screening Services] doctor.

?It?s deplorable that the people running the FSC and the production companies would let performers still work in light of this crisis,? a second industry expert tells Radar.

?The owners and lobby groups are all self-serving, and have money to lose if the actors are forced to use condoms.

?But the performers have more to lose?including their sexual health and lives.?

Industry performers are outraged and understandably scared, as production continues to roll.

?People are still shooting in Los Angeles county as well as Vegas and in Florida,? the insider revealed.

Still, Dr Miao Is as legit as it gets as far as medical doctors with working historical knowledge of HIV and other STIs and infectious diseases. I would trust what Dr. Miao says to do 1 billion times over anyone else in this "industry" including Sixto Pacheco, who is NOT a dr. and of course Mike South and every other blogger that thinks they are a doctor

See, I actually doubt the integrity of any doctor that would stake his reputation on providing routine testing as a formidable defense to acquiring an ultimately deadly STI. :2 cents:

In this situation, nobody knows or has a clue on anything, even the people in the know. Its out and everyone is shocked and dumbfounded.


Got a working theory here. Just a Theory. So don't fry me for it.


With Weinstein, working so hard to shut us down and his personal public War with Congressman Gato, what prevents Weinstein from sending in one of his employees/patients, fellow condom supporter, with HIV from coming into one of our adult testing facilities, signing up for the PASS system and testing?


Think about it. It would way cause a moratorium, it would give Weinstein the amo he needs to run down Congressman Gato and porn.


And if we found out in fact who it is,(and we always seem to find out), and make it public, Weinstein will have the amo to shut down the testing spot for HIPPA violations in regard to patient Dr. confidentiality.



Not knowing and nobody knowing or even having a clue, is what generates my theory. No 1st generation or 2nd generation contacts yet. Not one!! This is what gets done before the press releases get done.

Just a thought guys.

I am sure that there are plenty of producers that don't use it... and they hire talent from all over, so if she did a scene with a big name a month ago... with a smaller producer outside of LA... well her "new" status doesn't mean jack.

If not, there should be. :2 cents:

Furthermore, while the adult industry is undergoing this production shutdown, it would be an excellent time to ensure everyone in the industry gets better educated about HIV and STDs, and starts doing a better job at being more careful.

Are the leaders of the industry doing anything to educate the industry about what they can be doing to better ensure the health and safety of everyone within the industry, or will they simply issue a few press releases again and return everyone to business as usual as quickly as possible to start pulling in money for their companies once more?

Well there certainly hasn't been any slow news days as of late and I am sure you'll have plenty to keep busy with over the coming weeks.

Maybe talk to JuicyAds about selling ad spots? A lot of their customers are already the sponsors that would be interested in advertising on a site such as yours. Probably worth whatever cut they would ultimately take. Selling advertising can be a lot of busy work so you shouldn't focus on that when there are others that can do it for you.

Porno Dan 09-06-2013 07:53 PM

Even though we use condoms, and I'm pretty sure more companies will be doing the same, the last two cases caught HIV off set and no amount of condom enforcement could have prevented that.

Education = awareness and awareness would = more fear.

I doubt that the people interested in keeping condoms out of porn only to protect their bottom line would be interested in making people further aware of the risks of HIV/AIDS and other life altering STI's.

It is much easier to pretend that testing alone is adequate.

And let's just say for a second... what if it does squarely fall on the crossovers and gay4pay performers... Eradicating that problem isn't as easy as it sounds. The gay4pay guys are still going to date porn girls... and if they're shamed about it they'll just learn to keep it under wraps better. One disturbing trend on the gay side is that more and more studios are going bareback. So not only is containment impossible, the risk will become greater as more gay studios go bareback.

One way to prevent that would be straight studios paying male models more. The g4p enticement is that the guys get paid the same as a girl would in a straight video. As long as that pay gap is there many models are going to follow the money, just like the producers that refuse to go condom.

At the end of the day it all boils down to greed. Straight producers don't go condom because they are afraid of losing money. More gay producers are going condomless because it boosts their income. Models go bareback because they'd most likely be paid less if they insisted on a condom.

"This is a true story:

Yesterday afternoon in the locker room of LA Fitness, who should I run into? None other than Michael Weinstein of the Aids Healthcare Foundation! We spoke for honestly about 30 or 40 minutes. In the locker room! I wasn't even wearing a shirt! Dudes kept coming and going oblivious to what we were talking about!

He communicated that he has a lot of resources that he can put and will continue to put into this fight. I believed him. I kept saying that the industry will definitely not stop the fight either, so the ONLY thing to do in my mind was to come up with some sort of 'settlement' or and/or agreement.

"Like porn ads for and involving condoms or something that have to go at the beginning of videos" - not a great settlement suggestion by me but I was just throwing stuff out there. "Honestly man, what is your end game? what's your ideal resolution?" I asked.

He didn't have a quantitative answer, but I kept saying that if he expected there to be a world where every free porn tube site video had condoms in it than that was not a world that has anything to do with reality, no matter how much time effort and money he puts into this fight. He listened to what I was saying. I kept insisting that the ONLY answer was to come up with some sort of "settlement" and work "with" the industry.

"Truly giving all performers the choice to use a condom would be a good start" he said. "From everyone I've talked to including all the performers I've talked to [at this moment I wanted to ask which performers he had talked to but I didn't], it's clear that performers do NOT truly have the choice and if they want to use condoms they won't get certain jobs,[etc.]" he continued to say.

I meekly replied, "I have to somewhat agree with you there, my guess would be 15 - 20 % of the producers truly give the performers the choice without it affecting anything else whatsoever."

I continued, "Anyway, let's say 100% of the LA producers somehow did adopt this true 'condom choice' policy: how would they prove it to you? How could they even contact you?"

"It's easy to get in touch with me, just call the office!" he said. "So far no one in the industry has reached out to me."

"You haven't spoken to Dr. Miao?" I asked. He shook his head. "You haven't spoken to Fabian? Steve Hirsch? Steve Orenstein?" "No one" he said,"just Mike South"!

I told him he should post on gfy, because as my father always said, all problems are problems of communication. He asked what gfy was. Now he knows! It didn't seem like he was going to post there, but it did seem that he would perhaps read it at least. If he reads my post, "Hello Mr. Weinstein, it was interesting and informative meeting you today, I will be in touch."

I think there must be some sort of solution here, I just need help thinking what it is and proposing it to this guy. AJ, ask them on gfy to please brainstorm!"

EDIT! As Reggie wrote, please brainstorm possible ideas to bring to this Weinstein:-)

Just checked the Free Speech Coalition website and the FSC Army twitter pages, and no mention of the new adult industry production moratorium.

I imagine a few people may be confused if it is on again or off again, since so many are wondering if this is about Rod Daily (the newest HIV+ moratorium is reportedly not about Rod Daily). Would be nice if the industry clearinghouse had some info on their site.

Maybe they were so busy all week telling everyone to return to business as usual, that once they issued the new moratorium press release, they figured it's Friday afternoon/night, we issued a press release, it can wait. :disgust

A third porn star has reportedly tested positive for HIV, adding more concern that an outbreak is underway among adult entertainment performers.

Two other performers- Cameron Bay and Rod Daily- have come forward and announced that they tested positive, but the third infectee has not revealed their name.

Radar Online reports that 'a dozen female performers have been quarantined as a result of exposure' as a result of the third case.

The latest case is renewing concerns over the health of porn stars as a result of the growing number who have confirmed sexually transmitted diseases.

we all use PASS that I'm aware of, you should give some credit the agents and producers. we are really on top off it...

if a producer here, brings a model in no male talent will work with her with out a test. there will always be sideways creep-os scattered around the country and sneaking around the main areas doing shitty stuff... I'm sure you see that in your industry as well......

it's really not the clown circus you read on blogs and post here at GFY... if things continue the way they are soon porn will be completely underground like the 60's, the rest will be out of US control.... see how the testing works out then :2 cents:

Couple of things that have recently happened that nobody is discussing:

1. The FDA just approved a new one pill a day treatment for HIV. So if a person does unfortunately contract it they now just take one pill a day. Just like a girl takes a birth control pill. Much easier than say a person with high blood pressure who takes all kinds of medications.
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/28/bu...-hiv.html?_r=0

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.

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.:2 cents:

Yeah, I know that article is about intravenous drug users. Because they weren't sure if ANYTHING could stop HIV when it's directly injected into the blood. If you read through the article you'll see that they already tested, approved and are using it to stop HIV through sex. (and also as a treatment for Hepatitis)

This article was about how it seems to be about 50% effective at stopping even direct injection into the blood stream of HIV!

As for consistent use....yeah. I would think that we would all want to be taking this pill everyday! I already take a handful of vitamins every morning. Taking an HIV preventative along with it wouldn't be a big deal at all.

And most women already take a birth control pill every day and vitamins, etc...wouldn't be that big of a deal.

Of course...the drawback is the price. About a grand a month for the pills. :( :( :(

Thanks big pharma. :(

But if a group were to get together on behalf of the industry and offer a pharmacy a huge bulk of buyers...perhaps the price would go down. But keep in mind that all the "Industry Testing" clowns have taken that same concept and figured out a way to charge more than double for the testing they do now (it's $59 with an order from my doctor to Lab Corp right here in Vegas)
So they would probably figure some way to get a bulk rate and then jack it back up to pad their own pockets. :(

Also...I wonder if perhaps it could be covered by insurance?

The drug is marketed as "Viread" and the active ingredient is Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF or PMPA)

1. The FDA just approved a new one pill a day treatment for HIV. So if a person does unfortunately contract it they now just take one pill a day. Just like a girl takes a birth control pill. Much easier than say a person with high blood pressure who takes all kinds of medications.

seems like AHF would be all over this doesn't it? obviously more money from condom manufactures than over the counter preventative measures :2 cents:
