  5. Not a good idea to have an hiv infected person in the food industry, sorry but can you imagine how much a person would get paid if they got hiv from this guy while he’s working there? Better safe than sorry.

  8. Wouldn't the health department close the restaurant if a person with an infectious disease worked there? If so it sounds like the store did what they were supposed to do and get rid of unwanted pests.

  9. Here is the legal fact regarding hiring someone who is HIV positive:

    Under federal law, employers may not fire or refuse to hire someone with HIV, or any another disability, if the person can otherwise perform the essential functions of the job.
