That fact that Mark Geier has an MD degree is irrelevant to the question of whether he is qualified to comment on vaccine safety. His expert opinion on vaccines and autism is routinely disallowed in court. His studies are regarded as worthless by bona fide researchers with the training and experience to be taken seriously. There's an excellent chance that by this time next year, Mark Geier won't be licensed to practice medicine in any state.
Do you have any credible evidence that the small amount of thimerosal once found in scheduled childhood vaccines was associated with autism? Can you explain why autism prevalence hasn't plummeted since thimerosal's removal from the pediatric schedule? I'm not interested in your "personal observation." You're a science writer for EmpowHer. Data please.
