The anti-vaccine movement’s steadfast figure has joined his division, according to people familiar with the matter.
New analyst David Geier has published numerous articles in the medical literature seeking to link vaccine mercury to autism. In 2012, state officials in Maryland discovered that he was practicing medicine without a license along with his father, Mark Gaia, who was a doctor at the time.
Maryland authorities also suspended Mark Geier’s medical license following allegations that he put autism at risk and exploited his parents. State the record.
Federal judges reject research on autism and vaccines and believe it is unreliable to stand up in court.
David Geier’s new government role surprised public health experts who had already expressed concern about Kennedy’s decision to cancel long-standing vaccine conferences and cut grants focused on understanding vaccine hesitancy.
Additionally, David Geyer’s involvement in government research has heightened fear that vaccine trust could be further eroded, especially after accepting Kennedy’s recent suspected alternative treatment for measles during a vast outbreak in Texas.
