NAIROBI, Kenya, April 1 (UPI) -- A section of Kenya's HIV and AIDS Prevention Act has been ruled unconstitutional, a move welcomed by human rights groups.
The 2006 law states that any person who knows they are HIV positive must tell "any sexual contact" about the virus infection. People who have the virus who "knowingly and recklessly" place other people at risk for infection could be jailed for seven years.
