From a legal perspective, if performer A works with performer B, who is known to do homosexual scenes without tests, and then A contracts HIV/AIDS/Hep C from B, A will have a solid case against that studio and producer for damages.



Nope.

Part of the model release you sign as a performer is a statement that waives your right to collect damages if contracting ANY disease.

Most performers are independent contractors. They are responsible for their own health and even their own health insurance. Perhaps it is different for talent under contract...is it?
