Somehow I missed the point in time when it became mandatory for employees to share their health conditions with employer. Do HIV (virus no less deadly for immunocompromised) positive person also has to report their status and current medication plan?
Not unless their job involves activities which could spread HIV.
This is true for jobs where there’s a meaningful risk: when I worked a research institute, I had mandatory vaccines which they provided for anyone with access to the labs, even the IT people. They aren’t allowed to ask for your medical history in most cases (military pilots, etc. have exemptions where it’s a job requirement) but they can require proof of vaccination as long as it doesn’t include medical details.

I assume transmissibility in the workplace affects decisions.
