Am I missing something? Some porn sex-ed pro here explain it for me, I'll appreciate it.

They aren't sure, it's simply a precaution that for the most part works fairly well judging by the number of hiv cases transmitted by porn stars vs the average joe on the street . To be sure they would need to be tested daily. But that might interfere with personal schedules and bareback escorting duties
