Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
Your reply has nothing to do with the title of the thread, which was not about TS porn stars who contracted HIV within the porn industry. The thread title is 'has there ever been an HIV outbreak in the industry?" This is a simple and straightforward question.
I am aware of two.
The first was in May 2004. A male actor contracted HIV, reputedly from a bareback scene in Brazil with a transgender actress. I cannot verify the accuracy of this.
Then he returned to the USA and infected a number of females, three or four from memory. All shooting in the porn industry shut down for about a month as AIM tried to work out exactly who had been shagging whom.
In a totally separate incident at exactly the same time, a transgender actress tested positive. She appeared in a Joanna Jet movie, but the two stars she appeared with both tested negative.
There was a further outbreak a few years later, but my knowledge of that is vague. AIM was being hacked for HIV test details, and that was the driver for flushing it down the toilet.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
He did ask about it happening in ts porn. I only knew of one rumored to happen on set. Has there been incidents in main stream porn, yes. It The two big incidents where Marc Wallace and the other with Darren James. It was pretty messy. Marc Wallace actively hid his results. I remember Ashley Brooke being a mtv special True Life: I am porn star and there was the E True Hollywood thing on it talking about her doing first anal gangbang with her receiving anal creampies and afterwards how she had some bleeding from it. She later was diagnosed with HIV. The second was just as bad as the first one with Darren James.
I remember the media was saying how unsafe the porn industry and some sort of action needed to be taken. People where saying "Just look at all those people having bareback sex, what can you expect." Even though at that time a lot of porn was still condom porn, people had a lot of misconceptions about it.
It shaped the porn industry today from those incidents. Let's forget talking about what Mr. Marcus did, shessh. Still the industry has done pretty good job in policing itself. That cannot be denied.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
Marc Wallice gave 6 female performers HIV in 1999-2000 I can not remember the exact year
Darren James gave 4 female performers HIV in 2004 after contracting it in Brazil
Cameron Reid tested positive in 2011
Sofia Delgado, Cameron Bay, and her boyfriend Rod Daily tested positive in 2013
TJ Cummings tested positive in 2013
but again, none of those performers were TS nor has a TS ever been outed or documented as being positive ever in the industry. There are many rumors, innuendos, and whispers, but absolutely no documented, public TS actresses that have TESTED positive.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
Just to verify are you saying that no ts actress has ever been documented having HIV, or there has been evidence of HIV being contracted on set?

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
I don't understand the distinction you are trying to make with "an HIV outbreak in the industry". "In the industry" seems to implicate the people who book the studio, the camera operator(s), the janitor in the building, etc -and cannot avoid the performers.
In every case you have to prove that someone became HIV+ because of a scene they shot in a film, good luck with that. If you do not know the precise sexual history of all the people involved, how can you be sure you know that A infected B when either A or B -or both- may have become HIV+ from another person? And that is to limit the spread of infection to sexual intercourse rather than some other means.
Ask yourself how many accusations or assumptions would stand up in a court of law, and take it from there.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
Yes, there have been several ts who has had HIV. Easiest that comes to mind is Bianca Biaggi and there are few more. Your statement is way too board. Even you have admitted there are ts porn performers have retired due to it. Of course that is something happens in their private life so I would not call it something that was due to their time in porn. Saying that there is no ts porn actress that ever having HIV is a little too board. Having contracted HIV on set, I don't think anyone has heard it happening.
Statically the transgender community has been the highest risk in HIV over the past several years.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
And we are on the same page, I have only heard rumors. I am not saying it could not have happen, however there is no evidence it ever happened to the public knowledge. Especially in the modern era of porn where testing for HIV is more effective and integrated then when porn first started.
I agree, I will never say it is without risk it would be silly of me, but the porn industry uses a more aggressive method for ensuring on set performances are safe from HIV in the United States. Can't say that about everywhere.

Re: has there ever been an hiv outbreak in the industry?
John Stagliano claimed to have contracted HIV through bareback sex with a transsexual in Brazil, although not on a specific shoot.
I know of multiple Brazilian models we have worked with over the years who have contracted HIV at a later date, some of whom we've continued to shoot with as solo models.
I know of multiple Thai models who have HIV, whom we continue to work with as solo models.
I know of a handful of US models who have HIV, whom we continue to work with as solo models.
I don't believe any of these caught them on a porn shoot but given the amount of partners many performers have, and the lack of testing in some countries (or poor testing) then it's not impossible, just the probability is it happened elsewhere.
One TS model was tested positive for HIV before a porn shoot quite a few years ago.
