      see? she’s a scientist, therefore she knows what she’s talking about!

      you aren’t going to question your own precious science, are you, liberal? didn’t you know all scientists study the same thing?

      How does being a psychologist constitute a reasonable qualification to have any weight on the matter? Vaccinations belong to the field of pharmacology, on which psychologists have no training whatsoever (possibly aside from psychiatric drugs) and if they do, they’re most likely a psychiatrist, in which case they’re doctor first and psychologist second.

      The author has no qualifications whatsoever to talk about vaccines, aside from her doctoral dissertation, which I would consider questionable at best.

      Here’s the program she got her PsyD from.

      She’s a psychologist, not a psychiatrist, so she has no training in pharmacology. Requirements for her program say nothing about organic chemistry.

      I wonder if her program would be happy about her using her degree to make medical claims, considering it isn’t a medical degree.
