AI Summary
This bill amends Section 70F of Chapter 111 of the General Laws to allow for HLTV 111 tests to be performed and the results made known to a person who may have been infected, even if the infected person is unable or refuses to give written consent. This is in the case where the infected person's blood has come into contact with another person who may be infected as a result. The bill provides an exception to the usual requirement of written consent for these types of tests.
