But your son is 3, isn't he, so he would have been conceived and born around 2001, and couldn't have been "given" mercury 10 years ago.

It's a common misconception that mercury was removed in 1999. It was only recommended that it be removed. There were millions of vaccines with mercury sitting on the shelves and we couldn't waste that, could we? The truth is, we really don't know when it was taken out because it was never mandated. Best guess is late 2002/early 2003. But even though it may not be used as an ingredient, it is still used in the manufacturing process so that drug companies do not need to maintain a sterile environment. One scientist is quoted as saying in 2000 that based on the data he sees in the vaccine database, he will not let his grandson be vaccinated with thimerosal. But sadly he didn't care enough about our kids to mandate a removal. This is available for all to see via the Freedom of Info Act. My son, and countless others, were poisoned with mercury in 2002 for no reason. I hope these people will pay for their crimes.
