	Richard Horton - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Richard Horton, MB BS BSc FRCP FMedSci, is the present editor-in-chief of The Lancet, a United Kingdom-based medical journal.
		Not long later, the medical journal The Lancet, of which Horton is the editor, published estimates on the death toll of Iraqi citizens after the US led invasion in 2003, putting it at a total of 655,000.
		Horton had previously been involved in controversy over claims he published in 1998 in The Lancet linking the MMR vaccine with autism [1].

	bmj.com Rapid Responses for Elliman and Bedford, 329 (7473) 1049
		In asserting that Richard Horton deserves some of the blame for the current situation regarding the MMR vaccine in Britain, Elliman and Bedford neglect to consider the consequences had the Editor of The Lancet chosen to censor an early report that had been successfully peer reviewed and was published with a commentary urging caution.
		Horton is correct to require, and Bedford and Elliman (whose 'competing interests' perhaps disclose why they do) are wrong to deny, the need for a 'NASH' and a 'Council for Research Integrity' to move foreward with 'vaccine science' which at the moment is little more than science fiction parading as fact.
		Horton got his editing wrong, interesting though the question posed in the paper was, it was not developed enough to be worth publishing in a general journal.

	Duesberg on AIDS- The Case if HIV and AIDS- Part 5 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Horton's selectivity did not properly allow readers to evaluate (a) the books under review; (b) the relative merits of hypotheses competing with the orthodox hypothesis that HIV is a cause of certain diseases; (c) the positions of a number of scientists who have challenged the orthodoxy.
		Horton mentioned Duesberg repeatedly as a critic of the established views, but by not referring to the multiple articles in the Kluwer collection, he made it appear as if Duesberg is more isolated than he actually is in raising objections.
		Horton endorsed a suggestion of self-experimentation, made by Barry Bloom, whom Horton characterized as "a respected investigator at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute in New York." Thus Horton appealed to an authority figure.

	Guardian Unlimited Books \| Review \| Review: Second Opinion by Richard Horton
		Horton, editor of the Lancet, can be forgiven for this - there is plenty of scope further to disseminate good consultation skills among the medical community.
		Horton dissects the roles of the principal players: the media, whose agenda runs completely counter to the tentative nature of science; the medical establishment, which unleashed a bitter backlash against Horton and the study authors; and the Royal Free group itself, some of whom used the media to circumvent the scientific process.
		Horton delights in provocation: drug companies are lumped together with the tobacco industry and soft drinks manufacturers for social irresponsibility; the Human Genome Project's transcription of the entire human genetic code was "a crushing anticlimax".

	spiked-health \| Article \| MMR: 'A reparation, of sorts'
		Dr Horton recalls wistfully that, for everybody apart from Wakefield, the idea of this press conference was that it would afford 'an opportunity to stress the benefits of the MMR vaccine and the inconclusive nature of their results with respect to the link between the syndrome and the vaccine'.
		Though Dr Horton discusses, at some length, the prospects for the global eradication of measles, he neglects to mention that, largely because of the Wakefield campaign, this goal - considered attainable in Britain in the mid-1990s - is unlikely to be realised in the foreseeable future.
		Dr Horton refers to the grim history of parents being blamed for causing their children to become autistic, but fails to recognise how the campaign against MMR (which is linked to attempts to attribute autism to other environmental agents, from vaccines containing mercury to dietary factors), has revived the parent-blaming tradition.

	Drug prescribing by nurses in the UK - Editor of the Lancet urges caution
		The contentious issue of drug prescribing by nurses is assessed by Richard Horton, Editor of THE LANCET, in a Commentary in this week’s issue of the journal.
		Horton adds: "Nurses are being manipulated, under the guise of providing quicker and more efficient access to health care to fill the gaps left by too few doctors.
		Richard Horton concludes: "Taken together, this evidence, and the uncertainties and arguments that flow from it, send a clear message to government: slow down the process of widening prescribing rights.

		Looked at this way, both on the merits of the case that Deer had presented, and on the basis of ordinary practice concerning disclosure of competing interest, there was no basis for Richard Horton to pursue any action against Andrew Wakefield.

	Hot Potato
		Three days after The Independent article, Richard Horton received a phone call from Professor Lachmann, the former Vice-President and Biological Secretary of The Royal Society and President of the Academy of Medical Sciences.
		According to Horton, Professor Lachmann threatened that his job would be at risk if he published Pusztai’s paper, and called Horton ‘immoral’ for publishing something he knew to be ‘untrue’.
		Horton likened the actions of the Royal Society to a “Star Chamber”.

	Persistence of Vision: Richard Horton's Guardian article (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		On the "passive surveillance" issue (the sole reason given by Horton for the discrepancy between IBC and the Lancet study), he says it "will always underestimate the total number of casualties".
		Horton's examples imply "a tenth to a twentieth".
		Particularly as governments tend to justify these mass slaughters by saying that "civilian" casualties will be kept to an absolute minimum (the implication being: who cares about combatant casualties).

	AIDS, Africa, and the WHO: A resource page from DISSONANCE
		While Horton remains highly critical of Duesberg in the article and the published exchange that ensued, he admitted that the AIDS research community has effectively flballed funding for Duesberg's projects, and that this should be stopped.
		First, the World Health Organization estimates of AIDS cases in Africa that Horton cites do not correspond to HIV seroprevalence because HIV testing on that continent has produced alarmingly high rates of false positive results in a large proportion of tested populations.
		This is why a growing number of African scientists and researchers have criticized the WHO premise and insist that addressing structural poverty and unhealthy living conditions — not behavior modification schemes — constitutes an appropriate patient-centered approach to achieve better health care.

		But The Lancet says that without effective leadership from a global body, targets set in Johannesburg are unlikely to be realised.
		The new body it advocates would be set up along the lines of UNAids, the UN agency responsible for tackling HIV and Aids, itself now acknowledged as one of the most important barriers to economic progress in the developing world.
		Richard Horton believes that lack of scientific data is a major hurdle to effective economic development - another area which the proposed new body would address.

	spiked-central \| Letter \| Richard Horton
		According to Dr Michael Fitzpatrick, Andrew Wakefield has somehow amassed incredible persuasive powers, to accomplish the following things (MMR: 'A reparation, of sorts', 21 September).
		He has charmed Richard Horton, editor of an prominent medical journal, to promote exotic and completely falsified theories about MMR vaccines and autism, despite having the scientific credibility of a Spice Girl.
		He has duped thousands of misplaced, guilt-wracked parents of autistic children, who desperately seek a scapegoat with deep pockets, to cover their expenses and assuage their ignorance.
