Yes, I learned about them a while ago. Below I'm linking to a rundown of some of their corrupt actions-- including that they and their associates served as their own IRB. (Protocol for human studies must be reviewed by an IRB, so I couldn't understand how their crappy methods were approved.)

And here is the explanation for the retraction of one of their trashy studies, which contains a link to the trashy article itself: pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...

Yow. Way beyond quackery I see. As of any of their work was actually peer reviewed. Analogy - As a Founder/CEO, every single weird email that I get from an unidentified party 👾📨 now gets screened by AI to confirm it is genuine. And I never take cold calls. I call it 'Industrial Fraud'

Yes, the volume of sketchy phishing that goes on across all devices, hourly, increasingly, is unbelievable. The Geiers created a nearly closed system that enabled them to conduct nonsense (not proper studies) which was published in flimsy journals and got huge publicity from the anti-vaxx lobby.

I was relieved that their fraud was identified and punished, years ago now— yet, in this regime, the disgraced and uncredentialed David Geier can apparently be the “lead investigator” of a massive “study.” — Thanks so much for your interest; I hope this is useful information.
