From PASS: "THREE-DAY hold on production"
 

This message is to inform you that a THREE-DAY hold on production is in effect, as of immediately.

This is due to a situation recently brought to the attention of FSC that requires investigation before production can be allowed to continue.

FSC?s statement is as follows:

?We have received notification from a public health department official of HIV exposure on an out-of-state set. In an abundance of caution, we are calling for a three-day hold on production while we evaluate any risk to the performer pool, and determine if a full moratorium is warranted. As with past production holds, we ask that people refrain from speculation until more news is forthcoming, and respect performer privacy. We are currently working with the public health department, the production company, and the performer, and will alert as more information is available.?

We appreciate your patience and consideration at this time. If you have questions or need more information, please contact [email protected].

Best regards,

The FSC Team

So many threads on this! :P

FREE SPEECH COALITION EXTENDS PRODUCTION HOLD THROUGH MONDAY

The Free Speech Coalition is asking that all producers extend the current production hold through Monday until all tests for possibly affected performers are conclusive.

Diane Duke, head of the Free Speech Coalition:

"We understand that production delays are difficult for performers as well as producers. However, as always, for the safety and intergrity of the performer pool, we need to err on the side of caution. We will continue to work with producers, performers and the health department to investigate, and determine when production can safely continue."

Thank you,
the FSC Team
