The results of HIV testing must protect public health while preserving individual rights against unnecessary intrusions. To determine whether actual risks justify mandatory testing and reporting, the best possible objective medical information must be considered. Legislators and courts must not cave in to public sentiment and fears. Courts must scrutinize HIV testing legislation carefully to ensure that the legislative history is accurate and the primary goal is concern for public health, not for discriminating or creating scapegoats.
艾滋病病毒检测结果必须在保护公众健康的同时，维护个人权利免受不必要的侵犯。为了确定实际风险是否足以证明强制检测和报告的合理性，必须考虑尽可能客观的医学信息。立法者和法院绝不能屈服于公众情绪和恐惧。法院必须仔细审查艾滋病病毒检测立法，以确保立法历史准确无误，且首要目标是关注公众健康，而非歧视或制造替罪羊。
