SAN FRANCISCO (KPIX 5) — About 100 of the passengers on the Malaysia Airlines flight that was shot down over the Ukraine on Thursday were reportedly AIDS scientists and researchers heading to Australia for a conference.
World Health Organization spokesperson Glenn Thomas was also among the victims.
The International AIDS Conference is taking place in Melbourne this weekend, organized by the International AIDS Society, who released a statement following the crash.
“The International AIDS Society (IAS) today expresses its sincere sadness at receiving the news that a number of colleagues and friends en route to attend the 20th International AIDS Conference taking place in Melbourne, Australia, were on board the Malaysian Airlines MH17 flight that has crashed over Ukraine earlier today. At this incredibly sad and sensitive time the IAS stands with our international family and sends condolences to the loved ones of those who have been lost to this tragedy.”
“Today, we apparently lost 100 of our best and brightest,” Cleve Jones, co-founder of the San Francisco AIDS Foundation, told KPIX 5 Thursday night. “It’s just heartbreaking. We’re a family.”
Dr. Joep Lange of The Netherlands, a former president of the IAS and renowned HIV researcher was on board the flight.
What maybe 1 in a 100 gets it through non-gay means?
The homos would love it if it weren’t mainly a homo disease.
So, many of the victims were homosexuals and liberals? That still doesn’t give a pass to the perps.
Everyone Has AIDS

Actually, a lot of people do get it through other means - perfectly innocent women married to men who got it from prostitutes, for example, or infants born infected. This is especially true in Africa and the Third World countries, where it is much more of a serious and expensive health crisis than here.
But that’s not the point. Why, regardless of how this particular disease is spread, would anyone rejoice at the loss of so much knowledge and training? And don’t forget, everything that is learned in dealing with AIDS, which is a particular autoimmune syndrome, is applicable beyond it and reveals more about other diseases of this type.
I hadn’t heard that - makes sense
How does 100 doctors/ AIDS health specialists compute to 100 homosexuals?
Do 100 doctors specializing in diabetes make them diabetic?
Seriously?
Political activists, more likely.
Reminds me of the old joke:
The definition of mixed emotions: Seeing your mother in law drive off a cliff in your brand new Cadillac.
I suspect the purpose of this AIDS conference was for begging governments to give them more money than actually doing anything resembling Science.

And introvenous drug users.
So when you really look at the whole thing, it really is lifestyle related for 99% with the occasional “innocent victim”.
now we know that Obama will make a harsh statement..
If only we knew as much about how to avoid getting cancer.
This is especially true in Africa and the Third World countries
Still, very few (statistically) are “innocent victims”. The huge majority get it due to lifestyle.
If only we knew as much about how to avoid getting cancer.

If Obama had known this I wonder if his statement on it yesterday might have been a weeping and wailing statement, instead of his short “tragedy” statement.
Free speech is ugly. Censorship is uglier.
Actually in America you get AIDS two ways, IV drug use and anal sex. That is why there was no epidemic among heterosexuals like the homosexual agenda claimed there would be.
Pray America wakes up
More like 1 in infinity from non-homosexual and drug IV means.
I thought the irony of a missile taking down the plane in the exhaust was amusing. I forgot I was talking about a sainted group and humor is not tolerated about them. My apologies to the perpetually offended.
Pray America wakes up
