She was the first royal one doing that. Without gloves. Praise to her!
Kate & Meghan don't come close.
@@Onmysheet Diana would have appreciated the effort that Kate and Meghan put into their work, and would have sympathy for the way the media tries to put them down.
It’s easy to forget these days that the same papers and publications that have now put Diana on a pedestal, were the same ones to ridicule and vilify her when she was alive.
She stood for kindness, and we should all strive for that.
@@robc9599 I think the media negativity Meghan and Kate get os influenced by royals to keep them in their place, learning from the mistake of letting Diana outshine them
@@robc9599 beautiful words
@@robc9599 Meghan she flew to America shirking her duties while trashing Harry’s family with lies horrible.
That nurse was awfully brave, too. He really showed that just because you’re infected, that doesn’t mean you’re undeserving of being heard, and it doesn’t mean you’re useless.
Agreed!!! ❤
I think his name is Shane, what a brave and beautiful man, you can see the empathy on his face. He died of AIDS himself after nursing so many through the horrors of the disease. People like him are braver and more powerful than any superhero ♥️♥️♥️

Shane Snape (1959-1992) died four years later at age 32 from AIDS-related complications. Shane was a nurse, that made the great devotion of his life to those who were HIV positive. He is the embodiment of the unsung hero that only had a small clipping obituary in the papers, but the impact he made was great. And Diana, who was very well-known and famous also was a hero. She helped to break away at the immense amount of stigmatization of HIV-positive people, doing more than British Prime Minister, the Queen, or the US President at the time. I am a 24 year old proud gay man and I am HIV-positive. Because of medical advancements, I can neither transmit the disease to others not will I develop AIDS. I will live a full life with a healthy immune system and I thank those who came before that are the reason for this.
One of my best friends is HIV+ and we share joints all the time and I’m perfectly healthy 💯💪
Life goes & and you will be just fine! ❤️😘😘

@@FM-dm8xj What's confusing you?
RIP
Be strong and live happily. You are blessed person. 🙏 Someday soon the cure will be available.
Ground breaking that was. What a woman.
Weren't you the one who commented about Violet Chachki being beautiful on the outside only? Lol
@@examichelle guilty!
@@gayham lmao
@Gayham you're a legend
@@examichelle What an icon lol
She wasn’t afraid to show her love for the People. And the Monarchy was so bitter and resentful over it.
They should have been thankful
My mum told me it was a massive deal when Princess Diana did this. People were shocked she shook hands with aids patients and didn't wear gloves. Apparently the royal family were very against her doing this and she ignored it and did it anyway regardless of the consequences.

@@wickedwitchoftheeast88 Here is the Good wich yes wich of the North to dissect you 🧝🏻♀️too da looo 👸🏻🧝🏻♀️👸🏻🧛🏿♂️🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅🪅⌛️
@@wickedwitchoftheeast88 absolute nonsense. The RF were not against her doing this charity work
We hope she is looking down, with tears in her eyes, being incredibly proud of what we have established…
She would look at the hatred and ignorance that's been normalised in the West and wonder how we've fallen so low from the late 90s.
@@noradosmith you do realize that the 90s also had crime and such atrocities too right??
Unfortunately the UK havent established much 😔 the UK is built on corruption now
@the raising sigma Why don’t you go prove that for us?
I'm HIV positive, I'm very please what Princess Diana have done for the AIDs/HIV community😘😘😘
@Lux free from what?HIV?
@Lux they cast away the HIV?I mean, which is a virus?Lmao why is virology still valid then,priests would cast the pathogens away
@Lux Well Jesus really must be something,considering that a moron like you is still alive.Or is it science and growing technology?I don't know,ask your doctor the next time you get flu which was a deadly disease like one year ago.
@Lux just so you are aware.... no one has ever been cured of hiv because it is an incurable virus, it can be treated but it will never go away once u have it... there is no god casting it away you are just to small minded to see that
@Lux HIV can't be cured, idiot.
I remember my mom telling me about this one day! She was crying and so thankfully. She was a nurse and has told me all the horror stories regarding the misinformation when HIV first came on the scene.
its true they locked aids patients in rooms and didn't let them out and when they died they removed their bodies in a lead coffin...it was absolutely shocking treatment of gay men with aids.. your mum is pretty special lady and everything she did on the aids wards for the guys in those dark days will never be forgotten by the gay community. tell her thank you and look after her my friend she is a very very special lady indeed. much love to her xxxj
Imagine how something so simple changed those patients feeling for good, she was an angel.
Queen of the People. Always remembered
for sure. She did a lot of good during her short time on this earth.
Here after watching It's a Sin. This really made me so emotional. She was an absolute diamond.
Me too. Heartbreaking to watch.
look on BBC Sounds for "The Life Scientific" broadcast on Radio 4 today 2/2/2021 at 9:00AM. In it epidemiologist Anne Johnson who did lots of the early research on HIV transmission and who helped set up this AIDS Ward discusses her career. Of course people really didn't know what was true before her and other people's research.
Me too! I cried sooooo much with that show and seeing her doing this made me understand why she was loved so much!
Best thing Diana ever did.
That and also the land mine issue.
Plus she resisted the Royals
In her "royal visits" (even after the divorce she was royalty, with or without her royal title), she did more than lightly shake hands and hold flowers. When she went somewhere, she made her visits worthwhile, it wasn't just "waving gracefully". she went there to visit those people and showed compassion, made them feel appreciated and even made them laugh.
I remember you Nurse Shane. Like most of the people in our town that knew you; it was a massive shock to hear you died. You were always full of fun and good to be around. Diana in this clip was really great in the way she interacted with you all. Rest in peace luv.
He looked like a very sweet person
She was the best
I though no royals weren't allowed to touch royals?
The best of the worse !
@@lamarlewis3183 she is not Royal ! She married them ! To water the blood !
Still is. 😃. To the 4% that will see this may you be well stay strong. Blessings 🙏💗🌷🌲🌲🌲
@@ashpasch6004 You talk as if Diana is still alive 🧐
A simple handshake showed so much about her as a person. She was a woman of compassion, love, and kindness instead of fear.
It helped raise awareness and told a frightened, ignorant public that you can't catch AIDS from just touching someone. She helped implement the shift towards a different kind of thinking. She used her high profile for a lot of good in her lifetime. For that I respect her.
The bravery of this nurse is commendable. Well done
The duty of monarchy is to grace and dignify the world. Well done.
If only it existed
According Queen her duty is to do nothing. Was a waste of taxpayer money. Diana would have a much better Queen than Elizabeth
@@newjerseylion4804 .. the fact that she did not rule out about entering into politics when asked during an interview after divorce scare to death the house of windsor.
imagine if she becoming prime minister...
🕌🕋 indeed ! 77777
God we need her so bad today. 😢
She is the epitome of class and humanity. ❤️
In the Philippines, in the 80's and early 90's, we were misinformed thinking that aids could be transmitted via simple physical contact or that it's airborne. Princess Diana was famous enough to watch and take note of that made a lot of us aware of the nature of the disease and that it's spread mainly via sexual intercourse, the mother passing it on babies upon childbirth, through intravenous drug use and blood donations.
No dear the Crown arranged it dear ! To give her a boast ! She was uneducated; they did it for the sake of the Crown ! She was just a vessel; an empty one at that ! Oh the truth always outs ! Embrace yourself !
She was too genuine for this world, such a tragic loss too soon but will never be forgotten ❤
A true inspiration she had a heart of the people. A true Queen.
She was BORN to be Queen, and The Monarchy were scared of her presence and empathy. They KNEW she was a threat to their "half ass" accomplishments and took her out.
This was groundbreaking at the time , at this time they would show them horrible aids adverts on tv .
How many lives did they save ? From the statistics quite a lot. Unlike the tabloid press they weren't Homophobic. A different video had a shot of a huge Billboard Poster.
"AIDS IS NOT PREJUDICED . IT CAN KILL ANYONE.
GAY OR STRAIGHT. MALE OR FEMALE. ANYOPNE CAN GET AIDS FROM SEXUAL INTERCOURSE. SO THE MORE PARTNERS THE GREATER THE RISK. PROTECT YOURSELF. USEE A CONDOM"
The campaign scared a lot of people off from having sex altogether which was actually what the creators. had hoped. Remember at the time there was no effective treatment as Freddie Mercury found out.
@@MrDuncl and kenny Everett I remember it all well I remember the billboard poster too. I remember seeing Freddie for the first time after all the rumours were going around about him being his positive and dying and was shocked to the core. the media were ruthless in them days it was sick what they would do and say to get a story.. have you ever seen the Dallas buyers club movie? true story that if uv not seen it please watch it. also the new series on channel 4 called its a sin is absolutely brilliant and deeply moving you will cry bucket loads x ATB mrdunci xxxj
@@jdb7752 Yes Kenny and Freddie both caught AIDS from the same boyfriend. I hadn't heard of the Dallas Buyers Movie but came here from "It's a Sin After Hours" here on RUclips. You realise that Jill is based on a real person who towards the end of the series plays Jill's mother.
If you are in the UK go to BBC Sounds and listen to The Life Scientific broadcast yesterday 2/2/2021 on Radio 4 at 9:00AM. In it the Doctor & Epidemiologist who did lots of the early research into AIDS transmission and who helped set up the ward this video describes her career. I found it fascinating.
If you Google "BBC How Princess Diana changed attitudes to Aids" you can watch a recent interview with a staff member from the Ward. That is where the film of the poster was. RUclips doesn't see to allow direct links.
@@MrDuncl Yes Kenny and Freddie both caught AIDS from the same boyfriend. what on earth are you talking about, gay men I guess?
Truly amazing woman. She didn't care what people said or thought of her, she just followed her heart and did the right thing. All the do nothing big mouths in politics today should emulate this courageous young lady, and maybe the world, especially the USA, would be in a much better place.
A very beautiful and intelligent woman was brave enough to touch a HIV patient without wearing gloves just to inspire patients of HIV so that
they did not loose hope of living a healthy life at that time.lam very much amazed of seeing such things.
Our most beloved Diana would have won Nobel prize if she was alive for her recognition as a peace worker.l regret this cruel world would not allow her to live long.May her soul rest in peace. AMEEN.
Diana really and truly changed the face of AIDS. Including Elton John, Elizabeth Taylor and many more. I’m more than jus grateful. I’m happy to know that people are starting to recognize that you can hug somebody even if they have AIDS. It’s not going to hurt you.
She was a woman that held the worlds heart in her hands. What a kind loving caring woman she was. So sadly missed
How beautiful that must have been for those people that wasn’t touch by anyone because of their condition. How blessed they were to experience a Princess embracing them despite their disease. Thank you God for sending a beautiful peace maker such as Diana. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to pick up where she left off. Love you so much Diana 😢👑❤️
She looks utterly beautiful in that last shot ngl
I feel this was the moment she became the Princess of the masses... ❤️❤️❤️
She put humanity before the titles. She is THE prime example of what true royalty really is.
pure soul she is .diana deserves more love and respect . She deserved better not that bad treatments heartbreaks 😢😢 queen of hearts , peoples princess .
God I really think she was an angel sent to the earth , she was heavnely beautifull and also so kind......it's...just...wow
What a beautiful woman we need more people like her today 💯
Always and forever in out hearts
She was such a beautiful person 😞
His eyes watering while talking about her.
Oh Lady D. You are The only Queen we never had.
I missed her everyday , I love her more and more 💗
She changed the world for aids patients that day❤️❤️❤️
First ever people’s princess ! What an unforgettable era of Thatcherism and lady di 💐
Rest In Peace princess Diana and the nurse Shayne snape 💙💙💙😢 and thank you both for all the help and support you provided for the patients
Princess Diana was too good for this world.
Princess Diana changed the world it was very important and meaningful. She changed people's negative opinions. What a woman!💖
All she did was finding LOVE , and spreading LOVE ❤💝
beautiful human beings.
I missed her very much.
What made you stop?
The most bravest Royal & kindest person Diana reaching out the sick
This is so beautiful and yet tragic, given much more should have been done about HIV/Aids prior to this. However Diana AND the patients, including the male nurse, Shane Snape, are heroes and we havent forgotten them as we still watch this decades later and remember them ❤
I love her. Beautiful inside and out
They say kindest people leave this world early…still makes me sad thinking of her leaving this world.
this woman was too good for this world
The Queen of people’s hearts
This is what royalty is really like god bless Diana ❤️❤️
Bella, hermosa, con un corazón enorme, sencilla, humilde, una mujer maravillosa ♥️🙏. Descansa en paz
oh great now I’m sobbing fantastic
Don’t know what led me here. But today is April 9th. That’s uncanny. Princess Diana had a light and beauty about her. She didn’t mind meeting those who were sick or poor or suffering. I hate how Charles and the royal family treated her. No one in the royal family will ever replace her.
she was way ahead of her time, i love her
Remarkable woman
DIANA WAS AND ETERNALLY WILL BE AN ANGEL. AND FOREVERRRRR BLESSINGS ON EVERYONE, REPEAT EVERYONE WHO'S DIED OF AIDS AND ARE STILL, MIRACULOUSLY LIVING WITH IT!!!
She was one of the kind. Very special person, very special woman…
An angel.
There’s a special place in heaven for that woman
Came here after watching the crown,
She was honestly truly a angel.
She was AMAZING. Super Smart woman. I love her.
I lost many dear friends pre 1997 to HIV/AIDS i remained negative which caused me great psychological issues for many years . Shane Snape was a dedicated nurse and is remembered with much love.
Angelic, stunning, charming, enchanting, sweet and goodhearted princess 🙏😔❤💓💔
Omg she was so beautiful !!!
I almost forgot how lovely Diana was.
I love how she doesn’t even smile at the end, she just glares in disappointment amidst all the misinformation 😂 True GOAT
Mr. Snape I hope you’re resting easy in Heaven. Courageous, kind man
She definitely had a place in heaven waiting for her. She was so loving.
Jenna is for the Good !
She had a golden heart
She was the Queen. She still is ❤️
elle etait tres jolie tres gentille elegante
Most Powerful Scene in Television History !!!
Fact: She was so majestic that, by touching them, she cured them.
All these years later and we still have not had a more influential and decent leader and kind human being. If only there were more Diana’s…
This remains my favorite part of history I was alive for. Years later it still hits the same.
She was a truly wonderful person, I was there was more like her arunder,
God bless you Queen Diana, you are the very best of Britain.
She's so beautiful ❤️
at :050 she wasnt wernt wearnt gloves. that pretty prucch sums um my princess , mph diana I love her and her daughters in law
Look at how happy she was while meeting the patients vs how annoyed she looked while revealing the plaque. She was amazing.
Kamila nikada neće biti ni zrno maka naspram princeze Dajane!!!!🙏🙏🙏
Queen of hearts
OMG how much beautiful she is
Diana wants to tell the world that aids cannot be transferred by shaking hands or touchy the aids patient but through blood transfusion and sexual intercourse.she made the patient felt relieved and accepted by the society. It was so.wonderful. and u will be remembered for being differrent and special.
What a blessing she was to this world didnt deserve her omg.
She is more like a person of empathy than sympathy.. 😊
She was an angel here on earth on borrowed time. Oh how she changed the world.
Brings me to tears this
The young nurse in this passed away in 1992. Time doesn't stop he and it was such a deadly disease at the time.
I saw Moment of Grace at the Hope Theatre, Islington, yesterday. It’s based on exactly this event. Very well acted and very moving. I think it’s on for 3 weeks.
I’m American and 19 years old and I wish she was here everyone’s love for her and her actions just warms my heart
❤ Love Diana
she was sooooo great...thank you...Princess of love
