Incredibly, prosecutors still find it necessary to criminally charge individuals with aggravated sexual assault or aggravated assault or battery when they knowingly fail to inform their sexual partners of their HIV/AIDS positive status.1

Aggravated sexual assault is typically defined to include non-consensual sexual activity that wounds, maims, disfigures or endangers the life of the non-consensual participant.

Aggravated assault or battery is typically defined to include activity, including sex that wounds, maims, disfigures or endangers the life of the harmed participant.

If you do not know your HIV/AIDS status get tested! If you are not comfortable telling others about your HIV/AIDS status get therapy until you are.

And never, engage in any activity that may transmit your HIV/AIDS status to another.

1. Canadian prosecutors have recently charged football player Trevis Smith with aggravated sexual assault.

He failed to inform his adult sexual partner of his HIV/AIDS positive status, notwithstanding the fact that he knew his HIV/AIDS status as positive before engaging in sexual activity!
