Semen Found In 11 Adult Entertainment Establishments: Mpls Health Officials

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — Concern over cleanliness and sources of contagion prompted the Minneapolis Health Department (MHD) to conduct a sweep of all 17 adult entertainment licensed businesses in the city.

During the environmental assessment, city officials say "stains of concern" were identified, sampled and tested for the presence of semen.

Stains of concern were identified in sixteen establishments, and testing confirmed the presence of semen in 11 establishments, according to MHD.

Semen in public establishments is considered a potentially infectious material and is a public health concern.
