Porn filming still suspended in wake of HIV scare

The pornography trade association that broke the news that an adult film performer has tested HIV-positive released a statement Tuesday noting that "the incident occurred outside of California" and that "there is nothing to suggest that the occurrence has affected the Los Angeles-based industry."

The Canoga Park-based Free Speech Coalition learned that the performer had tested HIV-positive on Saturday and the group called for a moratorium on filming Sunday night, according to the statement.

It was not clear Tuesday how long the temporary suspension of filming would last. 

"This moratorium should remain in place until primary reports of any exposure are confirmed. In the event of the necessity for first- and second-generational testing, a list of any individuals that may have been exposed will be compiled and the moratorium will then be evaluated by our medical and legal advisers, as well as industry stakeholders," the statement said.

It was not clear how many porn studios have suspended filming.
