You know, at the VERY least.... new talent should be made aware. So many new people to the business are clueless and can easily be misguided and pressured into scenes they may not want to do. They should at least be made aware of the risks involved of the tests that the industry doesn't do. If AIM wants to be the industry clinic, that's fine, then sit them down on their first visit and explain it all to them and make them aware of ALL the STDs and let them know the real deal. They don't do that. It would only take 2 extra minutes.

You are right on everything. One thing you may not know is; AIM makes all new talent watch a video warning everyone about all of the possibilities of everything you can catch working in the adult industry. AIM also advises that all new talent to get a full panel to check for Hepatitis, herpes, etc and they also recommend various vaccines for various diseases.
To me, AIM is what you make of it. I got every vaccination and checked for everything I could as often as I could. And I was not even talent.
I have heard new talent complain about the video because it took too long. I asked what did you do during the video? "Played Angry Birds" Why? Because I already know everything.
Like I said we don't attract the best and the brightest to our industry.

Is Talon going to walk if he sees a clean test from Talent Testing.. hell no.
Just because you don't know doesn't mean it isn't happening.
JustDave now understands the severity in all this.

Anything gabe100 says is dead on. Spoke to him on the phone. Knows what he is talking about and has some inside knowledge on this subject.
And we are in for more problems if certain things don't change.
