Because that’s not the case it is making…

It is the claim made vaccine deniers that the aluminum in vaccines is very dangerous. This study demonstrates that dietary aluminum exposure far exceeds exposure by vaccines. The implications of this study on those claims are left as an exercise to the reader.

If I were an anti-vaxxer I'd quickly dismiss this by assuming that aluminum consumed is magically not absorbed into my prescious bodily fluids during digestion. Those people are all about that needle phobia body horror so they will quickly move the goal post to it not being the amount but the method.
