US porn industry hit by HIV fear

Leading figures in the US pornography industry have called for all adult movie production to cease for two months because of fears of an HIV epidemic among its stars.

The porn business in the US is believed to be worth billions of dollars every year and its stars are frequently monitored for HIV.



For four years it is claimed that not a single porn star gave a positive test, but earlier this month actor Darren James, tested positive. It is now feared that the San Fernando-based actor may be one of many infected stars. A dozen women he has appeared with on film recently are being tested.



The Adult Industry Medical Health Care Foundation called for production to cease for two months while all actors were tested for the virus. The proposal has been seconded by the industry's trade publication, Adult Video News.



Jill Kelly, a former porn star who runs her own production company, said: "Anyone who continues to shoot at this point are complete idiots."
