thimerosal, a mercury-based compound added to some vaccines

[AmericaUnited]

The American Dental Association flatly denies that mercury-based fillings pose any risk to patients

They lying through their teeth.

Yeah, and the incidences of autism over the past five years are down dramatically, but of course there is no connection................

It should be interesting to see what comes of this. It is widely believed that mercury is vaccine is the cause of the increase in autism. However study after study has proven this to be untrue. We may be able to see of the studies are correct or not. If autism rates continue to climb in states were it's use is ban it will free up the medical community to look in new directions

[goodnesswins]

Are you a dentist?

[Kimmers]

A friend of mine has a theory that to many vaccines are given to infants at one time. She thinks it would be better to spread the immunizations out. It is a thought but it makes some sense too me.

[joesnuffy]

Actually they are lying through...your teeth

"a mercury-based compound added to some vaccines"

I heard they're replacing them with arsenic-based vaccines. Don't worry, they're safe.

Now, if they'll just get it out of our dog vaccines, too.

[Arizona Carolyn]

You're friend if right. I think giving a newborn infant HepB borders on criminal negligence.. you take a baby who is potentially breast-feeding to gain natural immune antibodies from it's mother, and still has them from the womb and inject with a vaccine that sets off a whole range of things in the body....

Purdue just did a study on vaccinated vs unvaccinated Great Danes and found that even the ocassionaly-vaccianted had developed antibodies to the egg/chicken protein... most vaccines are grown on eggs. So not only do they have antibodies against the virus they were vaccinated against, but also the protein the virus was grown on... you feed that protein and the body mounts a rejection to it and then we wonder why so many allergies these days.

[Kimmers]

This very interesting information....Do you know a source for the study? I would love to forward this information to her...thank you

www.vet.purdue.edu/epi/gdhstudy.htm If your friend is interested in this subject there is rheams of new information on the web..... I have now gone to homeopathic flu vaccinations for myself and my husband and no or few vaccinations for myu dogs.

Does this fall in the numbers of autistic children coincide with reduced use of thimerisol? It was my understanding that they had been reducing the amount but there still was vaccine in the pipeline that was being used.

[Kimmers]

Thank you

[Dr. Scarpetta]

I've been looking for a flu shot without mercury, but I haven't seen it around here.

I've heard the opposite, that it's actually on the rise. Can you post your info for the decline of Autism.

I do the homeopathic, you take a dose once a week for 4 weeks. It is formulated for each year's flu, just like the vaccine. Since I quit having flu 'shots' knock on wood -- no flu.

[Arizona Carolyn]

There was a time when you hardly ever heard of a child with autism, now it seems like you hear about it all the time. We have a friend who's cousin has a young child with autism and who has a grandchild with autism.

Things I've seen indicate it's on the rise in states like California -- which makes me wonder if it's because doctors there are relentless in making certain babies and young children are vaccinated. I work for a doctor and you can count the days until a young child is back in with a cold, fever, etc., after a round of vaccinations.

I'll track down the information. About two months ago I was listening to KNX newsradio out here in Los Angeles and they had the news release on the declining autism numbers, coupled with a denial statement by the medical/vaccine industry officials that the changes in the vaccines were in any way related.
