Default The Geiers Planned the Results Months in Advance

The Geiers’ study was mentioned by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in his
extensive essay, Tobacco Science and the Thimerosal Scandal (upon which
his shorter article, Deadly Immunity was based):

A soon-to-be published study by Drs. Mark and David Geier shows rates of
autism and other neurodevelopmental disorders declining nationally
following the elimination of thimerosal from most vaccines.
Tobacco Science and the Thimerosal Scandal was published on June 22,
2005. A footnote indicates that Kennedy personally interviewed David
Geier in the course of his research; one would assume that this occurred
at least a month or two before he published his article.

Yet, according to the Geiers’ report, the online public access VAERS
database (updated through August 31, 2005) was examined using Microsoft
Access… The total new number of adverse event reports for each type of
ND received on a reporting-quarter basis… for 36 consecutive reporting
quarters from January 1, 1994 through December 31, 2002, and for 14
consecutive reporting quarters from January 1, 2002 through June 30,
2005, were evaluated in VAERS.

The online public access CDDS database (updated through October 4, 2005)
was examined using Microsoft Access. The total new number of autism
reports received by the CDDS from 36 consecutive reporting quarters
(from that starting on January 24, 1994, through that ending on January
6, 2003), and for 15 consecutive reporting quarters (from that starting
on January 3, 2002, through that ending on October 4, 2005), were analyzed.

If Kennedy’s report is accurate — that is, if David Geier had, in fact,
told him prior to the June 22, 2005 publication of Tobacco Science and
the Thimerosal Scandal that their

soon-to-be published study… shows rates of autism and other
neurodevelopmental disorders declining nationally following the
elimination of thimerosal from most vaccines.

— one must conclude that the Geiers determined the results of their
study prior to conducting their analysis of data upon which it was based.
