A second actor for Kink.com, the San Francisco adult film company, announced Tuesday that he tested positive for HIV.

The actor, who goes by the screen name Rod Daily, wrote on his Twitter account that he contracted HIV in the past month. Kink.com's chief executive, Peter Acworth, said Daily and an actress known as Cameron Bay - who tested positive two weeks earlier - had been dating offscreen for at least six months.

The adult film industry's trade association, Free Speech Coalition, issued a moratorium on shooting following Bay's diagnosis. Her last shoot with Kink.com was on July 31, and all her onscreen partners have since tested negative for the disease, Acworth said.
