HIV Criminalization Laws CA Lawmakers Crosshairs #okc #news #wth



Exposing a person to HIV is treated more seriously under California law than infecting someone with any other communicable disease. It is a policy some lawmakers say is a relic of the decades-old AIDS scare that unfairly punishes HIV-positive people based on outdated science. Several lawmakers are promoting a bill by state Sen. Scott Wiener, D-San Francisco. It would make it a misdemeanor instead of a felony to intentionally expose someone to HIV. The virus causes the immune system-weakening disease AIDS. Under current law, a person who knows they are infected with HIV and has unprotected sex without telling their partner, can be convicted of a felony and face years of jail time. http://apne.ws/2niUJng http://bit.ly/1fJ5yqZ This video was produced by YT Wochit News using http://wochit.com
