RIP to 108 researchers traveling to 20th International AIDS Conference
RIP to 108 researchers traveling to 20th International AIDS Conference traveling on the plane of Malaysian airlines which was shot down.
Although I almost dont know anything in this field, losing over hundreds of great minds who have spent years and decades of time to study is sad.

My sister-in-law was 32 years old when HIV got her, I lost another lifelong friend to it 18 months ago and have other close friends that have it. "By
the Grace of God" I don't have it I darn sure engaged in pretty risky behavior at one time.
The whole thing is just a tragedy, researchers or not.
