Answer:

Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA)

Step-by-step explanation:

The "Americans with Disabilities Act" is meant to protect the rights of the people who are disabled, especially when it comes to employment.

The disabilities mentioned here include the person's mental condition, aside from his medical condition. Included in the list of disabilities are the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) and Autoimmune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS). This includes those people who are "asymptomatic," but HIV-positive. This also means that the employer is not allowed to question the applicant's medical condition nor disclose such confidential information to other people. If the applicant or employee experiences discrimination, they have the right to file a complaint.
