Two porn companies fined

[Camy]

Two porn companies in California have been fined after its actors failed to use condoms on set.

Larry Flynt's Hustler and Forsaken Pictures are accused of not protecting performers from exposure to disease.

The porn industry in America, worth billions of dollars, asks its actors to have monthly blood tests but wearing a condom on set isn't mandatory.

Last year an actor tested positive for HIV with several firms shutting down production while it was investigated.

In 2005, it was revealed another porn star with the virus had infected four women he worked with.

Tougher rules surrounding the possible compulsory use of condoms in porn films could be introduced later this year in California.
