Prague Syphilis Outbreak Slows Adult Production

PRAGUE — An outbreak of syphilis among porn performers in Prague has slowed production in Europe. Twelve active performers are known to be infected, according to Evil Angel Production Consultant Karen Stagliano.

"Director Jazz Duro is shooting in Budapest, and he's keeping track of who he can't shoot," Stagliano told XBIZ. "There are some Hungarian guys who live in Budapest and went to Prague to work for a director there. The people in Budapest can't let those guys work now."

There is no official protocol for returning to the talent pool after a syphilis infection, according to Stagliano.

"They are working on how long those people won't be allowed to work, but I don't know what the time length is. It's more than two or three weeks, but I don't know what the exact time length is. [Duro] called us last week and asked, 'Do you want me to be careful and keep track of who [was exposed], or do you want me to shut down now?'

"We told him that if you can confidently be careful and know that these people haven't been exposed to anybody who's been in Prague, we're OK with that for at least another week. Once people start traveling back and forth too much, you aren't going to be able to take that chance."
