A pilot of an unnamed Chinese airline has been suspended from flying after the company received a tip-off from his gay partner that the pilot is a HIV carrier.
A 19-year-old Shenzhen student, identified as Xiao Xiong, said early this week that he met and slept with captain Zhao Liang in May and their relationship lasted one month.
Xiao said Zhao neither took any safety measures nor told him about his HIV status. He accused the captain of "maliciously spreading the virus."
Though his medical check result was negative, Xiao Xiong was afraid that Zhao would harm more people and reported it to Zhao's company whose name was not disclosed, the Beijing News reported.
The airline management admitted the scandal and said Zhao had been banned from flying and is undergoing hospital treatment.
Another pilot told the paper that they need to pass a strict physical examination in order to obtain a flight license. However, sex-related diseases like AIDS and syphilis have just been put on the checkup list this year.
