Aids Quarantine In England And The United States, Ronald Elseberry

UC Law SF International Law Review

Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) has become a world health crisis.

This Note focuses upon the suggested solution of quarantining AIDS patients and carriers. The author first examines the checkered history of quarantine as a public health solution.

Aids And Employment Discrimination Under The Federal Rehabilitation Act Of 1973 And Virginia's Rights Of Persons With Disabilities Act, Leisa Y. Kube

University of Richmond Law Review

Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS) is a fatal illness that attacks the immune system, rendering it incapable of defending the body from a variety of rare infections. In the United States, the syndrome was first observed in 1979 in isolated cases in major metropolitan areas. At that time, it affected a limited group of people, mainly homosexual men and drug abusers. Faced with a deadly illness whose cause and mode of transmission were unknown, the public understandably reacted with fear. Many AIDS victims were shunned from schools, workplaces, housing, courts, and medical facilities.

The Nucleus Of A Public Health Strategy To Combat Aids, Lawrence O. Gostin

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Since acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) was first identified in I98I, its rate of spread among a primarily young and vibrant population has chilled the medical and lay communities. Today, the public response is sober and oriented toward the examination of specific policies that could lessen the impact of the disease. After six years' experience it is now feasible to propose a strategy for combating AIDS. Consensus around the policies outlined in this article should form the nucleus of the public health strategy to combat AIDS before the intervention of an effective vaccine or treatment.

The Need For Regulation Of Artificial Insemination By Donor, Richard J. Doren

San Diego Law Review

This Comment examines some of the legal issues surrounding the increased use of conception by artificial insemination by donor. The author argues that, while artificial insemination is becoming increasingly significant, it continues to be practiced by doctors without any guidelines for donor selection or a standardized system of record keeping. The author examines the current state of the artificial insemination system and the potential dangers presented by this unregulated system. The author concludes by presenting a model statute for regulating artificial insemination by donor.

Aids: Social Meanings And Legal Ramifications, Janet L. Dolgin

Hofstra Law Review

Judges and legislators have already faced a number of dilemmas posed by AIDS which necessitate the delineation of a concrete boundary between the state's responsibility to protect public health and the individual's right to be protected from governmental intrusion. The legal dilemmas are exacerbated because decisions must be made in the absence of adequate medical knowledge about the cause, epidemiology or treatment of the disease. Moreover, judicial and legislative decisions are being made in a context in which fears about the disease, and metaphors originating from it, are powerful and work to cloud legal categorizations and preclude objective evaluations.

Regulating Human Gene Therapy, Judith C. Areen

Georgetown Law Faculty Publications and Other Works

Scientific developments have moved the public debate on genetic engineering to the issue of human gene therapy.

Because so many important societal values must be weighed in deciding which, if any, of the first protocols for human gene therapy should be approved, it is obviously important to look closely at who will make the decision to approve or disapprove the protocols.

Workers' Compensation For Disease In Virginia: The Exception Swallows The Rule, Elizabeth V. Scott

University of Richmond Law Review

In the last fifteen years, "occupational disease" has become a household word. Thanks to "Sixty Minutes" and Ralph Nader, most Americans have been made aware of the hazards of coal dust, kepone, and vinyl chloride in the workplace. Numerous books have chronicled the plight of affected workers. A specialty in occupational medicine is now offered for physicians, who before had little or no training in recognizing work-related disease. In spite of this increased awareness, most occupational diseases still go unrecog- nized, both by physicians and by the legal system.

Aids And Quarantine: The Revival Of An Archaic Doctrine, Wendy E. Parmet

Hofstra Law Review

This Article, written in the early years of the AIDS epidemic, explored the historical evolution of the law of quarantine in an attempt to uncover its development through prior understandings of disease, science, and the relationship between the individual and the state. The Article then took initial steps toward placing the law of quarantine in the context of the then-current legal doctrine and analyzing its applicability to the early stages of the AIDS epidemic.

Sociological And Human Developmental Explanations Of Crime: Conflict Or Consensus , Deborah W. Denno

Faculty Scholarship

This paper examines multidisciplinary correlates of delinquency in an attempt to integrate sociological and environmental theories of crime with human developmental and biological explanations of crime. Structural equation models are applied to assess links among biological, psychological, and environmental variables collected prospectively from birth through age 17 on a sample of 800 black children at high risk for learning and behavioral disorders. Results show that for both males and females, aggression and disciplinary problems in school during adolescence are the strongest predictors of repeat offense behavior. Whereas school achievement and family income and stability are also significant predictors of delinquency …
