Answered: Yes.
Knowingly infecting another person with a sexually transmitted disease is at least worse than assault and battery. In the case of knowingly infecting someone with an uncurable STD, I don't know the appropiate name of the charge but it would be far more serious than infecting someone with a curable STD. And knowingly infecting someone with a fatal STD's, should be murder in the 3rd degree.

If it is easily curable then I don't think people should make a big deal about it. Just compensate for the cost of the treatment. However, if it was Aids, then that is similar to murder.

Being arrested is going a bit to far I think but I do think they should be fined and ordered to pay all medical expenses of the person/people he or she gave it to.

Always protect yourself. If one does not know the partner enough to trust, then take care of yourself.

The only STD to be considered a crime not to tell your partner about is HIV/AIDS

How is it hard to figure out who gave you a disease?

moomoof... to Ellie November 07, 2009 05:23:00

Well if you have many partners or a new partner in a short period of time you can not know who gave it to you or if you gave it to them'

Since most deseases have a incubating period of months before they are known
plus not many people go and get tested for some reason .

So many reasons why
