Guest FourAces Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 My ex worked for an ad firm that helped the porn industry handle the fallout when the transmission took place and they had to quarantine a bunch of actors. Quarantine? Sounds like something the Nazis would do or at the very least a few sorted republicans. Pretty harsh treatment for simply contracting HIV. But thanks for the info. Quote
BiBottomBoy Posted August 25, 2008 Posted August 25, 2008 Quarantine was just the official word they used. What it meant was that the actors who had worked on the initial Brazil set, plus secondary actors (actors they'd worked with just after the Brazil shoot) couldn't work on porn sets for 90 days after the incident until they could be retested. It actually worked out well. The porn companies got together and pooled money and paid the actors during the quarantine and the outbreak ended up being limited to only two or three porn stars and the industry managed to avoid government intervention by policing itself.
