AIDS Healthcare Foundation Today, 52 advocates from 3 HIV/AIDS organizations - including AHF -interrupted a speech by Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius with a spirited protest to decry the Obama administration’s dismal record on AIDS during an appearance by the Secretary at the United States Conference on AIDS (USCA) in Orlando, FL. At the beginning of her luncheon speech before an audience of approximately 2,000 conference attendees, the AIDS activists marched down the main aisle of the auditorium chanting, “Secretary Sebelius, Don’t let us down!, don’t let us die!” The protesters then gathered at the front of the hall with their signs and placards just below the stage and podium where Sebelius was speaking and then held their signs up high, effectively blocking the Secretary from view.
