A fourth porn actor has reported testing positive for HIV, increasing concern that there is an outbreak among adult entertainment performers.
Two performers - Cameron Bay and Rod Daily - have come forward and announced that they tested positive, but the third individual who was infected has remained anonymous.
A moratorium is ongoing on shooting in the adult film industry following the news of a fourth performer testing positive for the disease.
Diagnosed: Rod Daily, 32, announced via Twitter that he was recently diagnosed with HIV
Michael Weinstein, president of the AIDS Healthcare Foundation told the LA Times , that a fourth porn star had contacted the organization.
Mr Weinstein said: 'We were approached by a male performer who told us he had tested positive' but declined to give further details.
The adult film industry is considering increasing the frequency with which its stars take HIV tests from 28 to 14 days however a decision is yet to be made.
Radar Online reported that 'a dozen female performers have been quarantined as a result of exposure'.
After Cameron Bay came out as being infected, a brief moratorium was issued that stopped all productions of pornographic films, but that was lifted just days later.
When Rod Daily announced via Twitter that he had tested positive for HIV less than two weeks after Bay made her announcement, he advocated for further precautions to be taken.
'Drumroll please!! I'm 32 years old and I'm HIV positive. Acute HIV, which means I recently was infected. For that I am blessed,' Daily wrote on Twitter last Tuesday.
'I'm blessed for the fact that I caught it so early that I can blast that s*** with meds.
'With the tests I have done the doctors have figured out that I was infected within the last month...My antibodies just showed up on a test this week which is scary because they didn't a week ago,' he said in two other tweets.
A trade group representing producers of pornographic movies in Los Angeles called on any of Daily's sexual partners to be tested for the virus.
Positive attitude: Daily, who has been in the adult film industry for eight years, said that hopefully this will encourage porn stars to wear condoms
Out in the open: Daily announced his positive diagnosis on Twitter last week
The group said it could not yet confirm whether Daily truly had contracted the human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV, but it warned his partners to be tested.
The Free Speech Coalition were the ones to confirm on August 22 that the actress who goes by the name of Cameron Bay was also infected with HIV.
Daily has been linked romantically to Bay on the adult film industry website XBiz.com.
California Assemblyman Isadore Hall, who has been trying for months to get a bill passed in the state Assembly mandating the use of condoms in sex scenes, said Daily's reported infection shows the need for such a regulation.
'This is the second individual within a week and a half to contract HIV in the industry,' said Hall, a Democrat. 'There will probably be more.'
The multibillion-dollar adult film industry is centered in the San Fernando Valley area of Los Angeles.
Distraught: Cameron Bay's agent says his client, whose recent HIV diagnosis has brought the porn industry to a standstill, is 'distraught' over the news
Risk: Xander Corvus, left, who played Weiner in the movie with Sydney Leathers, had unprotected sex with Cameron Bay, right, a few weeks ago - who has just been told she has HIV
Debut: Sydney Leathers porn movie was released yesterday where she stars alongside Xander Corvus
The industry has vigorously opposed efforts to require condom use on set, protesting against a 2012 voter-approved measure requiring condoms to be used in Los Angeles County and successfully arguing against an earlier effort for such regulation at the state level that would be specifically geared to film productions.
The Free Speech Coalition said in an email to Reuters that Daily acted in gay and transsexual sex movies in which condoms were used.
After Bay tested positive, production was shut down for about a week.
Medical signs: Daily said that the test suggests he contracted HIV in the past month
But as of early evening last Tuesday, no order to cease shooting sex scenes had been issued.
In a series of Twitter postings, Daily cited this brief moratorium as an example of how the industry is unwilling to change- to the detriment of it's actors.
'That does not change anything though. A week later people are back at it shooting without condoms.
'I have also learned that people can be so well medicated that they test negative. Scary, the test everyone relies on.
'Magic Johnson has HIV, and can infect other people but his test comes up negative. Is that so impossible for anyone else to do the same? NO.
'Just sayin be careful because that test ain't shit without a condom strapped up with it.'
Daily appears to be taking a positive approach to the news, staying optimistic by saying: 'Had to pinch myself a few times no doubt. But the sun still shines on my face and its warm. Can't take my heart ever. I love life, blessed.'
'I felt bad for the guy who had to read me my first test result. His face turned to stone, I wanted to give him a hug and say it will be ok.'
Bay's scare resonated outside of the porn industry, as it was revealed that she had recently had sex with the male performer who later appeared in a video starring Sydney Leathers, disgraced congressman Anthony Weiner's sexting partner.

From the mid-1980s to the mid-1990s, there was no bigger porn star than Christy Canyon . Energetic, unenhanced and with an air of approachability, she was the perfect fantasy girl.
When she ended her career in 1997, though, she had no idea what her next move would be.
It’s a common problem in the world of adult entertainment. Porn stars, you see, don’t get 401k plans. They don’t have pension plans. And when their careers end, they really aren’t able to carry their most notable skill to another job. It can be a daunting thing to face – especially for those who have broken through and found longevity in the industry.
Canyon was lucky. Beyond the fixed amount per film she earned for performing with Vivid
Entertainment, she also negotiated a $1 royalty for each copy of the film that was sold. And in the heyday of porn, that was a substantial number.
She saved the money – investing it in the market and prospered. (The first stock she bought, she says, was Wal-Mart ).
“When I retired, I knew I could survive another 20 years without earning a dime,” she says. “That was my security blanket.”
Rather than curling up in that blanket, she bounced around, trying new things after leaving the set. In the early days of eBay, she sold memorabilia directly to fans. An encouraging teacher at a writing class led to a book (which she self-published, since she didn’t like the one-time payment deal publishers were offering her).
For the better part of the last five years, she has been the host of Playboy Radio’s “Night Calls”.
“I couldn’t imagine doing something unrelated to porn,” she says. “I always knew that whatever I did, it would be associated with ‘Christy Canyon’.”
That’s not an uncommon philosophy. A career in porn typically overshadows an actress’s other achievements, no matter what successes they have. But the industry tends to protect its own – and many of the true superstars, who are its ambassadors to the mainstream world, keep their toes in the water even after they retire.
Tera Patrick , whose reign atop porn lasted most of the last decade, recently retired, but is on
a book tour for her just-released memoir. She also continues to operate an adult video production company. At the same time, she’s also trying her hand as a club DJ as she attempts to branch into new fields.
Others get degrees and move on with their life. (Nursing is a popular choice, for some reason). Some chase a dream of becoming a mainstream actress – never managing to get more than an occasional role.
A larger number move into the behind-the-scenes side of porn. Some start talent agencies or their own production company. Others - typically the ones who reach a modicum of success, but not real stardom - become on-set photographers or make-up artists.
Talk with today’s porn stars, though, about life after their film career and the same name comes up over and over: Jenna Jameson .
The actress, who translated her porn fame to the pop culture world, is a model of what many stars strive for. The problem is: The porn world has changed dramatically from Jameson’s days. Competition is fiercer. Salaries are lower. And competition from the Internet makes stardom on that level considerably less likely.
A few seem to get that – and are paying much closer attention to the business side of porn as they perform. Jesse Jane , one of today’s reigning queens, has spent seven years carefully building her brand. She recently renegotiated her contract and is about to launch a line of signature premium sex toys.
"I figure I'm going to do [porn] for four or five more years and then quit," she says. "I've been pretty good with my money. … My focus is save, save, save. After this, I'd like to maybe open my own business - and have enough saved that even if that didn't go right, I'd be ok."
She hasn't decided yet whether that business will be tied with the adult entertainment industry, but says it’s a definite possibility.
"When I retire [from acting], I will have spent 11 or 12 years of my life doing this,” she says. “I go to all the business shows with [Digital Playground] so I can learn. … I think you can never leave."
And what about men? Typically, true male porn "stars" have a longer shelf life than women. Performers like Ron Jeremey and Evan Stone are still actively performing after 15-20 years, something the audience won't let women do.
Once they leave film, they generally move to the Web, where they operate their own site, doing the same gig.
The more generic male performers are often the boyfriends of female performers. Their career spans in the industry are much, much shorter than women's.
