No, but I think there might be a way to tell who haven't had a good english teacher.

There is a way. They can even break it down by county. I've seen the stats somewhere online. I think if you search for HIV on the CDC website it gives a national overview and you can get links to state statistics.

No, a person's HIV status is protected medical information and is not available to the general public.

Why do you think you are entitled to that information? Is there a way to find out the names of cancer patients in your state? Or a way to find out the names of idiots in your state? - oh yeah, I guess there is that and you are at the top of that list.

Not in my state (NY), there are privacy laws. But if you contract aids in some states and the person who infected you had knowledge of their condition-they can be charged with attempted murder.

You may be able to get the stats for your area but not names. If you had AIDS would you want people come knocking on your door asking you stupid questions.

No, the USA has Federal privacy laws to keep nosy snoops from prying where they don't belong.

No... it would be against the law for any health care organization to disclose that information with out the expressed consent of the patient. (HIPPA)
Why do you want to know???
