(a) Any person who exposes another to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) by engaging in unprotected sexual activity when the infected person knows at the time of the unprotected sex that he or she is infected with HIV, has not disclosed his or her HIV-positive status, and acts with the specific intent to infect the other person with HIV, is guilty of a felony punishable by imprisonment in the state prison for three, five, or eight years. Evidence that the person had knowledge of his or her HIV-positive status, without additional evidence, shall not be sufficient to prove specific intent. (b) As used in this section, the following definitions shall apply: (1) "Sexual activity" means insertive vaginal or anal intercourse on the part of an infected male, receptive consensual vaginal intercourse on the part of an infected woman with a male partner, or receptive consensual anal intercourse on the part of an infected man or woman with a male partner.

(c) (1) When alleging a violation of subdivision (a), the prosecuting attorney or grand jury shall substitute a pseudonym for the true name of the victim involved. The actual name and other identifying characteristics of the victim shall be revealed to the court only in camera, and the court shall seal that information from further revelation, except to defense counsel as part of discovery. (2) All court decisions, orders, petitions, and other documents, including motions and papers filed by the parties, shall be worded so as to protect the name or other identifying characteristics of the victim from public revelation. (3) Unless the victim requests otherwise, a court in which a violation of this section is filed shall, at the first opportunity, issue an order that the parties, their counsel and other agents, court staff, and all other persons subject to the jurisdiction of the court shall make no public revelation of the name or any other identifying characteristics of the victim.

(a) Notwithstanding Chapter 7 (commencing with Section 120975) and Chapter 8 (commencing with Section 121025) of Part 4, identifying information and other records of the diagnosis, prognosis, testing, or treatment of any person relating to the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) shall be disclosed in a criminal investigation for a violation of Section 120291 if authorized by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction granted after application showing good cause therefor. Any order of the court shall be issued in accordance with the following conditions: (1) An order shall not be based on the sexual orientation of the defendant. (2) In deciding whether to issue an order, the court shall weigh the public interest and the need for disclosure against any potential harm to the defendant, including, but not limited to, damage to the physician-patient relationship and to treatment services. Upon the issuance of an order of this nature, the court, in determining the extent to which any disclosure of all or any part of any record is necessary, shall impose safeguards determined appropriate by the court against unauthorized disclosure. However, the court shall not order disclosure under this paragraph for any purpose other than a proceeding under this section. Any order for disclosure under this subdivision shall limit disclosure to those who need the information for the proceeding, and shall direct those to whom disclosure is made to make no further disclosure without permission of the court. The court shall grant permission for further disclosure when necessary for a proceeding under this section.
