The san fernando p[orn industry consists of about 900 to 1200 working performers every month. About 90% of these performers use no protection whatsoever. It's like a huge unprotected sex orgy that goes on every single day.To even speculate that one person is responsible for an "outbreak" of chlamydia is so ridiculous that it really doent even deserve comment. Not to mention that the original article by LUke ford states that HALF of the porn workers are out with STD's is BEYOND ridiculous.

As jommy d states.."when being offered bodily orfices...from someone who whatonly does so on a daily basis you might think twice before taking them up on that offer"" Wouldnt this accurately describe EVERY SINGLE PERSON who works in porn.

If you have unprotected sex with multiple partners, who in turn are having unprotected sex with multitudes of other people you are going to get STD's and there is nothing anybody can do about it.

As i've stated in posts before, I work for tha san diego county helath department sexually transmitted disease unit. I have been a fan of porn for quite some time and I love these "INDUSTRY" chat and gossip sites. But when I see stupid things like HALF of the performers have std's I just cANt help but feel sorry for the people who read this stuff and actually believe it. Your own industry reporting such bullcrap about the std situation is laughable.


Your industry clinic (AIM) has a database of test results that companies use. Any one with access to that database can tell you that there is nowhere near HALF of the performers testing positive. Based on real world statistics and the fact that people test every mont(supposedly) I would estimate the rate to be at the most 5 to 7% positive, and that may even be alittle high.

This Luke Ford charachter does your industry no favors when he prints this unsubstaniated garbage. When all of the actual FACTS about the performers test results are availabe to your industry, why does someone like this ford guy print this trash. Not to mention that others in the Los Angeles County helath deprtment might see this crap and believe it.

If there was anywhere even close to 10% positives, the health department would be in there so fast it would make your head spin. AIM, like any other clinic, by law has to report to the health department any positive std tests, as does the laboratory that performs the tests. These two reports are mathched togehter to make sure each is properly reporting.(This is the job I do for San Diego County) To state that HALF of the performers are currently positive is, like I said, so far beyond ridiculous it barely deserves comment. And to blame one person for an outbreak out of thousds upon thousands upon thousands of acts of unprotected sex really makes me question the education level of said person doing the reporting, and the people who believe it.
