Porn Performer Retests HIV-Negative

An adult film performer whose positive HIV test prompted the shutdownof Los Angeles' billion-dollar porn industry last week has been retested and does not have the virus, an industry trade group announced.

"The industry will be abundantly cautious as we try to nail down the reasons for what now appears to have been a false positive result on a previous test," Free Speech Coalition spokeswoman Diane Duke told the Associated Press, adding that production could resume.
