David Geier is NOT a vaccine skeptic.
Stop calling him that.
He is an anti-vaccine activist and a predator.
He spent years illegally treating children with hormone blockers, claiming it would “detox” autism caused by vaccines.

Letting him head an “investigation” into vaccines and autism will legitimize his decades of lies and illegal medical treatments that harmed children.

Vaccines don’t cause autism.
Vaccines aren’t even associated with autism.
The biggest predictor of autism?
GENETICS.
We have decades of data and millions of data points that to show this.
This lie insults people with autism too — as if it’s an “adverse effect” of medicine.
