Sec. 4014. Testing for human immunodeficiency virus
-STATUTE-
(a) The Attorney General shall cause each individual convicted of
a Federal offense who is sentenced to incarceration for a period of
6 months or more to be tested for the presence of the human
immunodeficiency virus, as appropriate, after the commencement of
that incarceration, if such individual is determined to be at risk
for infection with such virus in accordance with the guidelines
issued by the Bureau of Prisons relating to infectious disease
management.
(b) If the Attorney General has a well-founded reason to believe
that a person sentenced to a term of imprisonment for a Federal
offense, or ordered detained before trial under section 3142(e),
may have intentionally or unintentionally transmitted the human
immunodeficiency virus to any officer or employee of the United
States, or to any person lawfully present in a correctional
facility who is not incarcerated there, the Attorney General shall
-
(1) cause the person who may have transmitted the virus to be
tested promptly for the presence of such virus and communicate
the test results to the person tested; and
(2) consistent with the guidelines issued by the Bureau of
Prisons relating to infectious disease management, inform any
person (in, as appropriate, confidential consultation with the
person's physician) who may have been exposed to such virus, of
the potential risk involved and, if warranted by the
circumstances, that prophylactic or other treatment should be
considered.
(c) If the results of a test under subsection (a) or (b) indicate
the presence of the human immunodeficiency virus, the Attorney
General shall provide appropriate access for counselling, health
care, and support services to the affected officer, employee, or
other person, and to the person tested.
(d) The results of a test under this section are inadmissible
against the person tested in any Federal or State civil or criminal
case or proceeding.
(e) Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this
section, the Attorney General shall issue rules to implement this
section. Such rules shall require that the results of any test are
communicated only to the person tested, and, if the results of the
test indicate the presence of the virus, to correctional facility
personnel consistent with guidelines issued by the Bureau of
Prisons. Such rules shall also provide for procedures designed to
protect the privacy of a person requesting that the test be
performed and the privacy of the person tested.
