There is no harm in raising a fuss or even a brouhaha about the relatively slow pace of improvement in vaccines, especially as it concerns the willful introduction of mercury into vaccines.

Yep. Some vaccines were and are preserved in a solution that is nearly 50% methylmercury or ethylmercury. I guess for some it depends on what is an acceptable(as far as number of children) amount of debilatating neurological disorders.

Uh, that sounds pretty high.

Karen E. Wetterhahn a chemist at Dartmouth died after only being exposed to only a couple drops of dimethylmercury on her gloved hand.

btw, are you suggesting that only gays and IV drug abusers are at risk for blood borne pathogens??? that kind of thinking fueled the aids epidmeic.

First it's not THERE ANYMORE. From CDC

Thimerosal is used as a preservative in some multi-dose vials of vaccines to prevent contamination. Preservatives are not required for vaccines in single-dose vials. As a preservative, thimerosal is added at the end of the production process to the bulk or final container to prevent contamination after multi-dose vials are opened. Today, all routinely recommended licensed pediatric vaccines that are currently being manufactured for the U.S. market are free of thimerosal as a preservative.

Second. You grossly overstate the mercury content. While Thimerosol is 50% mercury, the CONCENTRATION in the vaccines of thimerosol is around .01 % or 1 ONE HUNDREDTH of ONE PERCENT. From CDC info.

Get your facts straight.
