PASS (Performer Availability Screening Services) has issued an immediate preliminary production hold across the adult industry after a performer tested positive for HIV.
👉 The hold applies to all scenes involving fluid exchange, including work by independent creators, and will stay in effect until further notice.
PASS is currently conducting contact tracing and retesting. The hold could last just a few days if all exposed performers are cleared quickly, but could extend up to 14 days if risks or delays arise.
❗ What’s Paused:
Penetrative sex scenes
Oral sex with ejaculation
Shared toy use
Any acts involving bodily fluid exchange
✅ What’s Still Allowed:
Solo content
Non-shared toy use
Masturbation near a partner
Kissing
Non-fluid-exchange BDSM scenes
PASS urges full compliance and reminds performers: anyone who chooses not to work during this time must be respected.
These holds are rare but vital in protecting the health of the performer community.
🛑 Safety comes first — always.
