Seth Dickens Speaks Out About His Exposure to HIV From Patient Zero

Seth Dickens writes: I know everyone is scared with this HIV incident, and I know my name has been in the middle of this mess, so I would like to take a minute to tell my side of the story. Before I do, I want to say I love this industry, and I wouldn?t do anything to harm it.

I have been under quarantine since AIM informed me of patient zero status. I have honored this quarantine and will continue to honor it until released by AIM. Thankfully, I have successfully gone through my second round of testing. This has been a very difficult and scary situation for me.

I worked with patient zero on May 20th. She had a valid AIM test that expired on May 29th. I also verified her test on line before shooting that day. I have tested negative for HIV in two series of tests on June 8th and also June 22nd. I will gladly and voluntarily remain on quarantine until receiving my next negative test results on July 6th just like everyone else in my situation.

I just want to be clear, I NEVER work unless I - and my partner - have a current valid AIM test. For anyone that thinks I am calling around to work as talent; that is not true. The truth is, I am working as a production manager in order to pay the bills; that?s why I call around.

I?m really sorry this happened to the industry, and I know it sucks, but it?s not my fault. I?ve always had a good name in this business, I would like to keep it that way. I am hoping this clarifies my involvement in this whole mess, because I have nothing to hide. I want to thank AIM for their help and I look forward to getting back to work. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Seth Dickens
Good luck Seth!

From all the other articles, wasn't the ladies test a week old (37 days)???

I'm glad he is ok. Hopefully the next test will come out clean as well.

My opinion is if you do gay porn you should not be allowed in the non gay part of the industry. Not that i see anything wrong with doing gay porn.

Yea..... big deal, Micheal Jackson is dead. No other news will be news for a while.

It can be said without bashing anyone, and you proved that right there Joe :pimp

You're entitled to your opinion Joe, and there are probably many people in the industry that might agree with you.

Like BRM said, you did it without bashing anyone personally, so I respect that.

Personally, I don't think that gay or bi people should be discriminated against, as long as they test clean. Anyone testing positive for HIV should not be performing in adult, whether heterosexual or gay.

I do however, think that such information should be disclosed so that the producer/director and other talent are aware, since they may not wish to work with a gay or bi performer.

Also, I could be wrong, but I was under the impression that Seth stopped doing gay porn a few years ago.

To my knowledge, I have only once shot a scene involving a bisexual male - it was with a bisexual female. Before shooting the scene, I made sure that she was fully aware that he was bisexual, and that she was okay with working with him, which she was.

I think it is good that Seth made his public statement about his HIV status (and remember, he was exposed to it by an HIV positive female, not a gay/tranny male performer). I do wish Seth good health, and hope his tests continue coming back negative.

I wish the other people involved in the current situation would be equally forthright.

For reals!!! :thumbsup

Yet AIM, the so-called HIV-Positive Patient Zero, and the producing company and director are still all silent...so the rest of the industry must continue to speculate and wonder about who they are, their culpabilty, and other such issues... :disgust

I am for transparency, and I am against cover-ups.

The industry is biz as usual. There are no coverups. AIM has done its job correctly, the people who should be quarrentined are. I know who the people involved are as does alot of industry people here now do but choose not to disclose. If you or any producer want to shoot talent, simply call AIM to check results as you have or should have for last bunch of years. If you cant get results, dont shoot them, quite simple.

And please remove that rediculous addition about Donny to your sig. I like your posts but now I see that childish sig text and just start to wonder.

Jay-Rock 06-26-2009 05:32 AM

I made it a rule to ask guys if they have done any gay porn before working having girls work with them. 9 out of ten girls would never work with them when they find out.

Looks like everyone try to go out clean from this.Good luck

CIVMatt 06-26-2009 06:19 AM

Nice post from Seth

Big Red Machine 06-26-2009 04:00 PM

I wish you all the best on July 6th Seth...after the 2 came out clean I'm sure you'll be okay.

Cheers
