States and territories with communicable disease laws
[edit]According to this AP source, "thirty-four states and U.S. territories have communicable disease laws that allow for criminal prosecution or enhanced sentences in HIV-specific cases." Do we have more information on which ones are still current? Thirty-five states (and no territories) are listed in the article. --Precision123 (talk) 22:47, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

[edit]why do people make articles without citations. where are the citations? this whole thing is worth literally nothing without citations. without citations, it's just some random asshole saying something on the internet, it's as credible as youtube comment. and whoever wrote this complete uncited intro paragraph knew it as well as I do, so why waste everyone's time? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2602:306:3bd8:4d90:9d6a:f75b:4741:f502 (talk) 08:50, 25 July 2015

First of all, please don't call your fellow editors assholes.
And secondly, what on earth are you talking about? This article has 40 citations.
The introduction doesn't need citations. It's meant to be a summary of the information below. If you think there's a statement in an article that needs a citation, add a {{citation needed}} tag.

Article title
[edit]Perhaps this article could use a better title. One of the problems that the article points out is that there are many laws criminalizing sexual conduct that carries no risk of transmission. So it seems like the issue is really criminalizing sexual conduct under the aegis of transmission. That's a particular enough phenomenon that it is probably rightly separate from articles about the criminalization of homosexuality writ broadly, but the article sort of begs the faulty assumptions that science is debunking and that nevertheless animate bad laws. 64.124.100.115 (talk) 20:11, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
