High-risk sexual behavior and failure to disclose HIV infection to sex partners: How do we respond?

Article Abstract:

Advocates for persons living with HIV/AIDS need to pay more attention to the troubling fact that unsafe sexual behavior persists among significant numbers of persons who know that they are HIV positive and who do not disclose this to their sex partners. Thus, issues such as vigorous enforcement of nondiscrimination law and principles, harm-reduction campaigns and honest sex education that reinforce membership in a single moral community, need to be emphasized.

Article Abstract:

This article discusses the problems of requiring name reporting in an effort to create an AIDS surveillance system. The author argues that many people with HIV infection avoid testing if they feel they must give their name, and maintains there is no evidence to support that name reporting of individuals who are HIV positive offers accurate information regarding the epidemic.
