Derrick Burts, a porn star who has contracted HIV in the porn industry, has come forward with his identity in the hopes of changing the industry standards of safety.
Also known as his stage name Derek Chambers and Cameron Reid, Derrick Burts discovered he had HIV after testing positive for the virus on October 8th, 2010 at the Adult Industry Medical Healthcare Foundation in Sherman Oaks.
Derrick Burts worked on both heterosexual and homosexual porn films. The Adult Industry Clinic where he was diagnosed told the public that he had contracted the disease from a personal encounter, however, Burts is adamant this is not the case. “There is no possible way. The only person I had sex with in my personal life was my girlfriend,” says Derrick Burts. He adds that they told him the HIV was linked back to an HIV positive cast of a gay film.
Burts says he had contracted herpes, gonorrhea and syphilis before HIV, all while making porn films. He is calling for the industry standard to require condoms while making all porn movies and better testing for those in the porn industry.
Wow, so, Derrick Burts contracted herpes, gonorrhea AND syphilis before the HIV and STILL made pornos? That’s one brave soul. And his girlfriend? Almost more brave…
Brave? No, how about STUPID?!! Burn me once, shame on you, burn me twice or more Shame on me!! And this guy was wreckless with his own life. I am a former adult actress and for years I required that no matter who I was working with there were condoms being used. I can tell you one big name Black porn star made a grip about it, like I was asking him to commit a crime. From then on I knew it would only be a matter of time before something horrible happened and it did in 2004 when Darren James tested positive. The women in this industry had better wake the fuck up because alot of these guys are switch hitters and no only on film but also in private. And it’s the things that are done in private that most concern me.
