Professor Holford did not change the main text in the book chapter. He added some text to the note at the back, in a small font, referencing some other papers where people did actually, at least, tip both AZT and vitamin C onto cells in a dish (this changes nothing), and a demand for more research, none of which, I note, he has offered to fund from his own extensive corporate involvement in this $50 billion sector. He is, after all, Head of Science and Education at the food supplement pill company BioCare, which sells a vitamin C pill in tubs with his face on. To be fair, he did however once deliver my favourite line from five years of writing in this area: ‘Perhaps Goldacre, who purports to be the campaigner for evidence-based medicine, could provide some evidence that high-dose vitamin C has no effect against HIV AIDS.’
