Not in the US there isn't. That is what the ADA is for.
Dr Bob Frascino worked with HIV+ patients,that's how he contracted the virus.In some cities people working in the healthcare field must disclose their status if they are HIV+.
That is BS, Dr. Bob had HIV and he still practiced until he got sick. There a lot of people that work in the healthcare field that have HIV and there is no disclosure law when it comes to anything other than sex
I know of a case at the canberra hospital where a nurse had to resign because he was HIV+ and didn't disclose his status.They had to test several mothers and babies because he delivered them.This was in 1998.Recently there was a doctor that infected over 60 women in a melbourne clinic with the HCV.I would think that a doctor could still operate but would be fully gloved,gowned and masked before surgery went ahead.
Sorry Teak, maybe is my irrational thinking, but back around 20 years in States in Florida incident of transfering HIV from dentist to patients happen, and he was wearing the glows all the time. So it was somehow possible. In some others countrys to, this is a small percentage but is happening.
My concern is can doctors still practice surgeries when they are infected with HIV?
Thank you, I know you are very educated in HIV fields, and you are giving your spare time to answers to all of this people on this side with HIV concern, just dont take my question of somone who needs mental help, just someone who is worry.
Have a good night!
