悼。。。前几年在实验室出去开会的时候还开玩笑来着。。。

MORE than 100 AIDS activists, researchers and health workers bound for a
major conference in Melbourne were on the Malaysia Airlines flight downed in
the Ukraine.
It is believed that delegates to the 20th International AIDS Conference, due
to begin on Sunday, will be informed today that 108 of their colleagues and
family members died on MH17.
Stunned researchers, activists and development workers arriving at Melbourne
Airport paid tribute to AIDS researcher Joep Lange and the other attendees
believed killed aboard MH17.
Jonathan Quick, head of a not-for–profit medicine supply company working
with the Global Fund and the US government in Africa and Latin America,
described Mr Lange as a force for change in HIV/AIDS treatment.
“I remember meeting him back in the late 1990s. He was really driven at a
time when there was not much going on in the way of treatment,” he said.
“This is a community in which individuals have moved mountains and it’s
also a community that has had regular exposure to horrific loss.”
Mr Quick, who runs Management Sciences for Health, will introduce an address
by former High Court judge Michael Kirby at the conference.
Activist and journalist Sean Strub, who runs the New York based POZ magazine
, said the conference was shaken by the tragedy and by Mr Lange’s death.
“It’s going to be a very sombre week,’’ he said. “The struggle with the
epidemic is bigger than any one individual but the collective loss of so
many important people is one that is emotional.”
Kenyan development worker Perez Odera said she feared the tragedy would
dissuade people from flying to conferences such as this.
“I just feel it is very, very unfortunate. It’s something we don’t have
control over,’’ she said.
Dr Robert Grant, a researcher from the Gladstone Institute at the University
of California, said that on arriving in Melbourne he had heard reports Mr
Lange had died.
He declined to say he was speaking about Mr Lange ahead of confirmation of
the death, but said a senior colleague — thought to be the Dutch researcher
— appeared to have perished.
“It’s incredible. He’s been a mentor to me and an incredible leader in
this field. We have published together and I have relied on him for advice
and guidance,” he said.
Another delegate, Jennifer Watt, who works for a pharmaceutical company in
San Francisco, talked of Mr Lange‘s work in Africa.
“I have worked very closely with him in a number of clinical research
projects. He’s very well known and a very passionate person. He’s the
father of AIDS research in the developing world,’’ she said.
Another attendee, Houston based community worker Moise Arrah, said the news
was devastating. “People were coming here for such a noble cause and then
they lose their lives in such a tragedy.”
Mr Lange was a clinical researcher specialising in HIV therapy who served as
the International AIDS Society president from 2002 to 2004.
His friend Dr Seema Yasmin, from the US Centers for Disease Control, said Mr
Lange was a true humanitarian.
“What a HUGE loss to the world,” she tweeted. “Just learned that dear
friend, amazing father to 5 girls and veteran AIDS researcher Joep Lange was
on #MH17.”
Australia’s National AIDS Trust paid tribute to Mr Lange.
“Reports Joep Lange died in Malaysian plane crash today, with other
scientists on way to AIDS_conference. Desperately sad news,” it said on
Twitter.
American academic and AIDS activist Gregg Gonsalves tweeted that “Lots of
AIDS researchers, activists, officials on downed Malaysia Airlines flight to
Melbourne for Intl AIDS Conference.
“Joep Lange was a leading AIDS researcher and clinician and an activist at
heart. Lost today too soon on Malaysian flight 019. RIP.”
A Geneva-based World Health Organisation media adviser, Glenn Thomas, is
also believed to be among the dead.
Dr Haileyesus Getahun, coordinator of the WHO’s Global TB program, tweeted:
“Saddened to learn that my friend and @WHO staff who was traveling to @
AIDS_conference to Melbourne was on flight #MH17. RIP #Glenn Thomas”.
His colleague Dr Rachel Baggaley, of the WHO’s HIV Department, told Vox: “
I’m just devastated. He’s a very close colleague whom I work with on a
daily basis.
“He just had his birthday, he was going to plan all sorts of celebrations.”
Nicole Schiegg, a former Senior Advisor at USAID, tweeted: “I am still
stunned. So sorry & thoughts are with Glenn’s extended @WHO family at this
time.
“Glenn was a great guy & will be missed.”
Jennifer Yang, global health reporter at the Toronto Star, tweeted: “So
saddened to hear about lovely, funny, whip-smart Glenn.”
Delegates Lucie van Mens, Martine de Schutter, Pim de Kuijer and Jacqueline
van Tongeren were also reportedly on the flight.
Dr Van Mens, director of program development and support at the Female
Health Company, has been involved in public health, focusing on prevention
of STIs and HIV/AIDS, since 1995.
Organisers of the AIDS 2014 conference in Melbourne are awaiting
confirmation of how many delegates were aboard the Malaysian Airlines flight
shot down over eastern Ukraine.
International Aids Society president-elect Chris Beyrer issued a brief
statement outside the Melbourne Convention Centre, where the world’s
leading HIV researchers and scientists, former US president Bill Clinton and
philanthropist Bob Geldolf will gather for next week’s conference.
“The International AIDS Society today expressed its sincere sadness at
receiving news that 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,” Mr Beyrer said.
“At this incredibly said 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.
“The IAS is hearing unconfirmed reports that some of our friends and
colleagues were on board the flight and if that is the case this is a truly
sad day.
“The IAS has also heard reports that among the passengers was a former IAS
President Joep Lange and if that is the case then the HIV/AIDS movement has
truly lost a giant.”
UNAIDS executive director Michel Sidibe tweeted: “My thoughts & prayers to
families of those tragically lost on flight #MH17. Many passengers were
enroute to #AIDS2014 here in #Melbourne.”
The IAS released a statement today confirming the death of a number of
attendees to the 20th Annual AIDS Conference.
“The International AIDS Society (IAS) today expresses its sincere sadness
at receiving 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,’’ it said.
“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.”
Bill Clinton, Bob Geldof, Michel Sidibe , the executive director of the
Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria Mark Dybul, Indonesian
Health Minister Nafsiam Mboi, Swedish Ambassador for Global Health Anders
Nordstrom are down as speakers at the conference.
