So what is needed is affordable "instant" testing.
Since so many of the people think that porn valley is the entire porn business...How about this:
http://www.socalhivtest.com/

That's results in 20 minutes for HIV for $120. You can get the DNA PCR HIV Test Combo results next day for $295

So a large company who shoots 4 to 5 scenes a day with different girls and different guys and has legit concerns in California regarding the laws on "worker safety" could use this type of facility and have some peace of mind...oh wait...They can't because they made a deal with AIM and a couple of others (TalenTesting) to only accept their results. So they've shut themselves out of the ability to get "instant" tests

If they hadn't done that, and had the ability to have the talent tested within hours of a shoot...that pool we're all swimming in would be a lot cleaner. Hell, as a producer you could actually accompany the talent to the facility and observe them being tested. No worries there about forgery.

And I've read in a couple of places that there is a VERY affordable oral mouth strip test coming soon over the counter. That would be even better. Then talent could be tested once a month for other STD's and HEP. And tested right on the spot at the shoot location for HIV.
