FSC Calls for Moratorium as Performer Tests Positive for HIV

CANOGA PARK, Calif — The Free Speech Coalition today is calling for a moratorium on adult film production because a performer has tested positive for HIV.

“We are following established protocols,” FSC CEO Diane Duke said, “for the protection of performers.”

The moratorium will continue until further notice; APHSS will update industry stakeholders about the moratorium as more information becomes available.

APHSS is operated by the FSC as a resource for the adult film production industry and to administer the protocols that uphold industry standards for health and safety.

The FSC and APHSS at post time did not release any other details.
