The answer to this question varies by circumstance and location.
In the United States, the states make the specific laws that deal with HIV transmission. Some states have legislation in place while others have yet to address the topic. In states where HIV transmission is legislatively regulated, like Indiana, these laws are often called "Duty to Warn" laws. In short, the laws usually require that, when a person is aware they are HIV positive, they are required to warn any furture partners before engaging in at-risk behaviors with them. However, if a person is unaware of their HIV status, they would not be liable for transmitting infection.
These laws vary by state. Some states, like Kentucky, do not have regulations in place at this time.
