As many as 100 of the worlds leading HIV/Aids researchers and advocates
may have been on the Malaysia Airlines flight that crashed in Ukraine, in
what has been described as a devastating blow to efforts to tackle the
virus.
.
Delegates to a plenary session held ahead of the Aids 2014 conference were
told that email exchanges showed about 100 attendees were booked on the
MH17 flight. The plane was downed in eastern Ukraine by what the US and
Australian governments have described as a surface-to-air missile.
.
There was no official confirmation of the number of researchers on board.
.
There were no survivors among the 298 people on the flight, which was
bound for Kuala Lumpur from Amsterdam. The Aids 2014 conference, due to
start on Sunday, is being held in Melbourne.
.
Theres a huge feeling of sadness here, people are in floods of tears in
the corridors, Clive Aspin, a veteran HIV researcher who attended the
pre-conference plenary session in Sydney, told Guardian Australia. These
people were the best and the brightest, the ones who had dedicated their
whole careers to fighting this terrible virus. Its devastating.
.
Prof. Richard Boyd, director of the Monash Immunology and Stem Cell
Laboratories, told Guardian Australia he was "gutted" by the losses.
.
"There were some serious HIV leaders on that plane," he said. "This will
have ramifications globally because whenever you lose a leader in any
field, it has an impact. That knowledge is irreplaceable.
.
"We've lost global leaders and also some bright young people who were
coming through. It's a gut-wrenching loss. I was involved in the aftermath
of 9/11 in New York and it brings back that level of catastrophe.
