Can I Sue Someone for Giving me an STD?

Hey guys this is embarrassing! :see_no_evil: Have someone concealing an STI has ever surprised you? I just found myself in this circumstance and heard about my legal remedies for wrongful infection with an STI. Can you sue someone if they deliberately transmitted one? I would like to learn about other people’s experiences and any suggestions they have for managing these obstacles. :thinking:

The most prevalent legal argument for suing someone who gave you an STD is negligence.

To file under the theory of carelessness, you must demonstrate the following elements:

The individual who gave you the STD was aware they had the sickness.

The person has an obligation to inform you about the STD ahead of time.

The individual purposefully did not inform you about the STD.

You contracted the STD as a result.

It should be noted that negligence does not necessitate the presence of malice. They could still be considered negligent if they used a condom but you caught the STD from them.

Yes, please do gather all the information from the medical record, receipt, screenshots of the messages, and other sources that may be useful to them.
