dbo:abstract
  • Mark Robin Geier (Washington, DC, 1948) es un médico estadounidense y controvertido perito que ha testificado en más de 90 casos sobre denuncias de lesiones o enfermedades causadas por las vacunas.​​ Desde 2011, la licencia médica de Geier ha sido suspendida o revocada en cada estado en el que fue autorizada, debido a preocupaciones acerca de sus tratamientos del autismo y su tergiversación de sus credenciales a la Junta de Salud de Maryland, a quien declaró falsamente ser un genetista y epidemiólogo certificado por el consejo.​ Mark y su hijo, David Geier, son frecuentemente citados por los defensores de la hipótesis desacreditada que las vacunas causan autismo. La credibilidad de Geier como testigo experto ha sido cuestionada en 10 casos judiciales.​ En 2003, un juez dictaminó que Geier se presentó como testigo experto en "ámbitos para los que no tiene formación, conocimientos ni experiencia".​ En otros casos en los que Geier ha testificado, los jueces han calificado su testimonio como "intelectualmente deshonesto", "no fiable" y "totalmente no calificado".​ Otro juez escribió que Geier "puede ser inteligente, pero no es creíble".​ Su trabajo científico también ha sido criticado; cuando el Institute of Medicine analizó la seguridad de la vacuna en 2004, desestimó la obra de Geier como gravemente defectuoso, "ininterpretable" y estropeado por el uso incorrecto de términos científicos.​ En 2003, la , criticó uno de los estudios de Geier, que sostenía un vínculo entre las vacunas y el autismo, ya que contiene "numerosas defectos conceptuales y científicos, omisiones de datos, inexactitudes y afirmaciones erróneas".​ New Scientist informó que el comité de bioética que aprobó algunos de los experimentos de Geier con niños autistas se ubica en la dirección de los negocios de Geier e incluyó a Geier, su hijo, su esposa, un socio de negocios de Geier y un abogado demandante involucrado en litigios por vacuna.​ En enero de 2007, un estudio elaborado por los Geiers fue retractado por la revista Autoimmunity Reviews.​ (es)
  • Mark R. Geier (born 1948) is an American former physician and controversial professional witness who testified in more than 90 cases regarding allegations of injury or illness caused by vaccines. Since 2011, Geier's medical license has been suspended or revoked in every state in which he was licensed over concerns about his autism treatments and his misrepresentation of his credentials to the Maryland Board of Health, where he falsely claimed to be a board-certified geneticist and epidemiologist. Mark and his son David are frequently cited by proponents of the now-discredited claim that vaccines cause autism. Geier's credibility as an expert witness has been questioned in 10 court cases. In 2003, a judge ruled that Geier presented himself as an expert witness in "areas for which he has no training, expertise and experience." In other cases in which Geier has testified, judges have labeled his testimony "intellectually dishonest," "not reliable" and "wholly unqualified." Another judge wrote that Geier "may be clever, but he is not credible." Geier's scientific work has also been criticized; when the Institute of Medicine reviewed vaccine safety in 2004, it dismissed Geier's work as seriously flawed, "uninterpretable", and marred by incorrect use of scientific terms. In 2003, the American Academy of Pediatrics criticized one of Geier's studies, which claimed a link between vaccines and autism, as containing "numerous conceptual and scientific flaws, omissions of fact, inaccuracies, and misstatements." In January 2007, a paper by the Geiers was retracted by the journal Autoimmunity Reviews. New Scientist reported that the supposed institutional review board (IRB) that Geier claimed approved his experiments with autistic children was located at Geier's business address and included Geier, his son and wife, a business partner of Geier's, and a plaintiff's lawyer involved in vaccine litigation. The Maryland State Board of Physicians referred to it as a "sham IRB" that did not meet the requirements of state or federal law. (en)
