The fact that it is a contagious disease should also have some bearing on the priority as well.

It seems to me that this is the key point about AIDS. Whether or not it's the government's business to fund medical research, there is greater legitimacy to the government's interest in a communicable disease than a non-communicable one, and particularly a deadly communicable disease. Who is lobbying for which disease is a distraction.
