Existing law exempts a physician who has the results for a confirmed positive test for HIV from civil and criminal liability for disclosing that information to specified people, including the local health officer, and requires that no identifying information be disclosed, except as specified. Existing law authorizes the local health officer to notify the other specified people for appropriate care and followup. This bill would include the designated staff of the local public health agency for HIV partner services among the people to whom the physician may disclose the information. The bill would authorize disclosure of identifying information with the written consent of the individual, as specified. The bill would also exempt from civil and criminal liability a local health officer and the designated local public health agency staff for HIV partner services who alert the other specified people about a positive HIV result.
