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.
