HIV, Disclosure and the Law Community Forum

HIV, Disclosure and the Law
Friday March 26th, 2010
1 P.M. - 3:30 P.M.

In Canada, people living with HIV have been
criminally charged, convicted and sent to prison
for not disclosing their HIV status before having
sex. HIV disclosure and criminal law bring together
many complex legal and social issues. People
living with HIV, and people who provide services
to them, want to know:
• In what circumstances do people living
with HIV have a legal duty to disclose their
HIV status before having sex?
• What can happen to them if they fail to
disclose their HIV status even though they
have a duty?
