David Geier is the Worst Person to Do a Study On Vaccines and Autism
But this choice makes perfect sense considering that Bobby Kennedy is leading the Department of Health and Human Services!
Are you surprised that they picked David Geier to do the long anticipated study about vaccines and autism that Bobby Kennedy has been talking about?
David Geier is the Worst Person to Do a Study On Vaccines and Autism
If you are, then you likely don’t know anything about David Geier!
David Geier is the guy who:
has a Bachelor of Arts degree in biochemistry, but no training in vaccines, autism, or epidemiology, etc.
created what many people consider to be a sham IRB with his father as the chair to provide oversight and approve their research studies
with his father, Mark Geier (who later lost his medical license), came up with the dangerous idea that they should treat autistic children with Lupron to chemically castrate them and supposedly allow mercury in their brains to more easily bind to chelation therapies they were then given - none of which is true! And to promote this idea, they opened clinics to treat autistic children with their Lupron protocol (Lupron, DMSA chelation, and Androcur) and seemed to have diagnosed kids with precocious puberty to get insurance companies to pay for the $6,000 a month treatment and extensive lab testing costing up to $12,000.
got studies published blaming vaccines with thimerosal for causing ADHD, autism, and other disorders, but there are major problems with his studies, including that he uses different time periods for cases and controls so that “the methodology used in the studies was completely invalid, and the studies fatally flawed”
repeatedly goes dumpster diving in the VAERS database to try to prove that vaccines are associated with autism
has had studies retracted for “infringements of professional ethical codes, such as multiple submission, bogus claims of authorship, plagiarism, fraudulent use of data or the like.”
was charged for practicing medicine without a license In Maryland in 2011
abused the Vaccine Safety Datalink database, creating the possibility for a breach in patient confidentiality
lost a lawsuit saying he should have been paid for work as an expert witness during the Omnibus Autism Proceedings
He is not the person to be doing a study about vaccines and autism, unless, of course, you already know what you want the study to find.
“Tapping David Geier tells us everything we need to know – this is a hit job. In my opinion, Geier has zero credibility in the scientific community due to his long history of crankery in this area. He is not qualified as is evidenced by a long history of shoddy science and discredited conclusions.”
David Geier Hired to Study Vaccines and Autism
Not to say that we even need any more studies about vaccines and autism!
Kennedy could have picked Wakefield to head this study. Wakefield compares well to Geier, fwiw. (and I still think Kennedy will appoint him to something egregious):
Wakefield, compared item by item to Geier:
1. He had no training in vaccines, autism, or epidemiology, etc and wasn't a physician per se in the UK but a surgeon.
2. He didn't have IRB approval for his inpatient experiments on autistic children that sent some of them to other hospitals to recover from things like endoscopic bowel perfs
3. He patented in the UK some bizare concoction of an autism cure that almost certainly would have hurt children if given to them
4. Published THE #1 fake study on vaccines and autism
5. Is too refined to dumpster dive VAERS but has a podcast where he's platformed those who do ("The Andy Wakefield Podcast")
6. Has the #1 retracted study ever
7. Lost his medical license for hurting children and doing experiments on them without an irb
8. Ok, he hasn't abused the VSD like Geier...I'll give that one to Geier
9. Sued Brian Deer multiple times and lost
He isn’t a doctor, what kind of scientific training does he have?
