What is the specific law or health code that is violated when a person knowingly gives you herpes? |
I am living in Tx and am curious what the exact Health code, or law is, that is broken when a person knowingly puts you at risk for herpes without disclosing thier ailment. I've heard it's illegal to pass on HIV, if you knowingly do it- Is there anybody out there who has personally prosecuted thier sexual partner for recieving the transmitted disease, wether in criminal or civil court? If so, I would like the .org site that I may visit to better understand this. I previously had a relationship with a man, who devulged that he had dated and slept with a woman who had herpes. He told me this AFTER we had slept together. I dont want to press charges, but now I have to tell people that I may have the disease. My current boyfriend, when we argue, threatens to prosecute me for giving him the disease...which to this point there has been no phyiscal signs after 3 years of dating. Opinions appreciated, but I'd really just rather have FACTS. Thanks. sorry to hear about your situation but i think a person who does this knowingly can be charged with battery but I'm not sure i would say consult a lawyer I think the only disease you can prosecute for is HIV considering it's life threatening. the only disease i know that u can do that is hiv or aids because it is fatal and you can be charge with life or possible death if that is allowed in the country but they usually just have the health department come and get the infected person and they put them in jail but u could still sue your ex because he knew before yall had sex but its been three yrs and no signs of the disease thats is possible with many diseases but the only way to be sure u dont have it is to get a test . good luck hope my information helped you a little but i know there is somthing that can be done with a person knowing they infected and still having sex without telling other just look it up on the web and call a civil law. |
