The law takes precedence over any terms/conditions of the contract.

I'm assuming QF took legal advice regarding this matter, nonetheless if I was the employee concerned I too would be taking legal advise of my own.

Given the number of QF staff that go to/from/transit DXB I'd be surprised if there wasnt others who are HIV positive. Just like any large company, a certain small % of staff would be HIV positive.
