  Landlord won't let me stay if I catch COVID
  
  If you are claiming that it's illegal to discriminate based on HIV status, then that's exactly how it works. Please show me the law? I would like to better understand the actual legal distinction between diseases that you're allowed to use as the basis of discrimination, and those that you are...

  Would you mind pointing me to the law that makes it illegal to discriminate based on HIV status, but legal to discriminate based on having the flu?

  So if everyone who has symptoms that could be a sign of HIV is being barred from a business, that wouldn't be illegal either?

  If the rules are interpreted literally (which they aren't in practice), it would seem that anyone with colds or even allergies is being discriminated against by these sorts of illegal postings.

  Citation needed You really don't see the difference between "not accepting a blood donation" and "you're not allowed to shop at a store"?

  Why is it "obviously not illegal"... are you reading the same Unruh Act that I am? CIVIL CODE - CIV DIVISION 1. PERSONS [38 - 86] ( Heading of Division 1 amended by Stats. 1988, Ch. 160, Sec. 12. ) PART 2. PERSONAL RIGHTS [43 - 53.7] ( Part 2 enacted 1872. ) 51. (a) This section...

  I see a lot of retail establishments who post signs saying "do not enter if you have COVID symptoms." Isn't that discrimination based on medical condition under the Unruh Act?

  Same as any other flu. Catching airborne illnesses is just a risk that you take living with roommates.

  Landlord won't let me stay if I catch COVID
  
  This is my understanding as well. So under this law it would not be possible for a landlord to kick out a tenant who caught a minor temporary illness like COVID, because of the long 30-day lead time. But if she got really angry at me then she could cancel the month-to-month tenancy. I have a...

  Landlord won't let me stay if I catch COVID
  
  Thanks, this part looks relevant: Do we know of any existing court cases or precedents related to this? When I do my googles I only see people talking about how to use COVID as a way to avoid paying rent (which is something I'd never do to my landlord, even if she is rude to me, because it's...

  It's California, some folks out here just completely went nuts over COVID. I see people wearing masks while they drive solo in their cars or walking outdoors in the park with nobody around. Month to month Not sure I understand. Isn't it still the law? And AIDS was a pandemic too. It's...

  Landlord won't let me stay if I catch COVID
  
  It is my understanding that the Unruh Act (and possibly other laws) prevent discrimination on the basis of medical conditions. For instance, a business isn't allowed to discriminate against HIV+ individuals, per Maureen K. v. Tuschka 155 Cal. Rptr. 3d 620 (Cal. Ct. App. 2013). Would the same...

  What is the name of your state? California I rent a room in a shared house. The landlord lives in another room in the same house. She is deathly afraid of the rona and she told me that if I get infected, I'll need to stay somewhere else until I'm COVID-free. Recently when she heard me coughing...
